Nothing is settling back in a better place than before the tariffs. That is a fact too.

Tell me, what in the bike industry is better now, what new American jobs have been created and who is better off than before? Facts please...

I am for creation of more good paying American jobs, but the reckless, poorly conceived flailing our government has just put all of us through has had no short term or long term positive impact on our industry and has created no new cycling-related jobs for us.
