Well, the article contains straight up lies meant to advance conservative agenda, so probably a lot.


Where? Was there anything substantial on offer, or are your replies so many crude fragments from the Argument Clinic?


The whole German cars point is based on "VAT is an import tax" lie. That is pure lie, VAT is exactly the same for German made cars. It is sales tax.

I am using the word "lie" rather then "mistake" because it is well know and easy to double check. No way they do not know.


Maybe lie is too strong a term. Having said that, the article suggests that US cars don’t sell in Europe due to tariffs, ignoring the fact that vehicles like the Ford F-150 just don’t work in the small streets of most European cities.
