Cant respond to your EU tariff comment but just wanted to tell you that VAT and luxury tax applies to EU made products as well, so it doesn’t seem relevant to add when talking about tariffs.

Combine these and it makes a lot of sense to trade a few below average valued workers for the release of many above average valued workers into the economy.
Depends if the cost to weed out the new problems it introduces outweighs the value of the problems solved.
That bubble is not the world, I exist outside the ladder and I am legion.
For personal use, like you mention, people use a small trailer. You own one or borrow it freely from many places, hitch it to your car, haul dirt, and then detach it. No need to drive a truck everywhere because you need to haul some stuff once a month.
> But this idea that no normal person needs a pickup truck a dozen times a year is just weird.
Yet the US is the only country where office workers own trucks. The only real use of a F150 style truck is offroad hauling, which is not something most people have to regularly do.
That said, my interpretation is that bands don’t really make a lot of money from streaming, it’s more of a promotional platform for them so it makes sense to just be everywhere to be seen. This is not true for tv/films.
