Nui nā ao i ke kakahiaka nui. E emi iki ana nā ao ma hope o ke ao. Kiʻekiʻe 83F. Makani ʻākau-ʻākau ma 5 a 10 mph..
Kū kekahi kanaka ma luna o nā puʻupuʻu paipu kila ma kahi kahua hana huahana kila ma ke kahawai ʻo Yangtze ma ke kaona ʻo Chongqing ma ke komohana hema o Kina i ka makahiki 2014.
Ua lohe nā limahana 170 o Trinity Products i ka nūhou maikaʻi i kēia pule: Ke holomua nei lākou e loaʻa ma mua o $5,000 pākahi ma ka māhele kālā i kēia makahiki.
Ua piʻi aʻe kēlā mai $1,100 i ka makahiki i hala a he hoʻomaikaʻi nui mai 2015, 2016 a me 2017, i ka wā i loaʻa ʻole ai i ka mea hana paipu kila ka lawa kālā e hoʻomaka ai i nā uku.
ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, wahi a ka Pelekikena o ka hui ʻo Robert Griggs, ʻo ia ka hoʻolilo ʻana o nā ʻauhau a Pelekikena Donald Trump, me kahi ʻano o nā hoʻoholo anti-dumping, i ka hana ʻana i nā paipu i ʻoihana maikaʻi hou.
Ua pani ʻia ka hale wili paipu o Trinity ma St. Charles i ka pule i hala ma muli o ke kahe ʻana o ke kai, akā manaʻo ʻo Griggs e holo ana ia i kēia pule, e hana ana i nā paipu nui no nā awa, nā kahua ʻaila a me nā papahana kūkulu hale a puni ka ʻāina. Ke hoʻokele nei hoʻi ʻo Trinity i kahi hale hana hana ma O'Fallon, Mo.
I ka makahiki 2016 a me 2017, ua nalowale ʻo Trinity i kekahi mau kauoha nui i nā paipu mai Kina mai i kūʻai ʻia aku, wahi a Griggs, no ka emi ma mua o kāna uku no ke kila maka e hana i ka paipu. Ma kahi papahana ma Holland Tunnel ma New York City, ua eo ʻo ia i kahi hui e kūʻai aku ana i nā paipu i hana ʻia ma Turkey mai nā wili kila i hana ʻia ma Kina.
He hale kaʻaahi ko Trinity ma Pennsylvania, 90 mile mai ke ana, akā ʻaʻole hiki iā ia ke hoʻokūkū me ke kila i hele i ʻelua hapakolu o ke ala a puni ka honua. "ʻO mākou ka mea hana kūloko haʻahaʻa ke kumukūʻai, a ua nalowale mākou i kēlā noi ma 12%," wahi a Griggs. "ʻAʻole hiki iā mākou ke loaʻa i hoʻokahi o kēlā mau papahana nui i kēlā manawa."
Ua hoʻopaneʻe ʻo Trinity i nā papahana kapikala he $8 miliona i ka wā o ka liʻiliʻi a ua hoʻemi i kāna kūlike 401(k), akā ʻo ka ʻāpana ʻino loa, wahi a Griggs, ʻo ia ka hoʻohoka ʻana i nā limahana. Hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻo Trinity i ka hoʻokele puke hāmama, e kaʻana like ana i nā hōʻike kālā mahina me nā limahana a me ka kaʻana like ʻana i nā loaʻa me lākou i nā makahiki maikaʻi.
"Hilahila wau i ke kū ʻana i mua o kaʻu poʻe limahana i ka wā e hana nui ana lākou a pono wau e ʻōlelo, 'E nā kānaka, ʻaʻole lawa kā mākou loaʻa kālā,'" wahi a Griggs.
Ua ʻōlelo ka ʻoihana kila o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ʻo ka pilikia, a ʻo ia hoʻi, ka nui o ka hiki ke hana ma Kina. Ua helu ka Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development e hiki i nā wili o ka honua ke hana i 561 miliona mau tona ma mua o ka mea e pono ai nā mea hoʻohana kila, a ua hana ʻia ka hapa nui o kēlā keu i ka wā i pāpālua ai ʻo Kina i kona hiki ke hana kila ma waena o 2006 a me 2015.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Griggs ʻaʻole ʻo ia i hopohopo nui e pili ana i nā pilikia kālepa ma mua, akā i ka wā i hoʻomaka ai ka nui o ke kila haole e hōʻeha i kāna ʻoihana, ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e hakakā. Ua hui pū ʻo Trinity me kahi hui o nā mea hana paipu i waiho i nā hoʻopiʻi kālepa kūʻē iā Kina a me ʻelima mau ʻāina ʻē aʻe.
I ʻApelila, ua hoʻoholo ke Keʻena Kālepa e uku nā mea lawe mai i nā paipu Kina nui i nā ʻauhau hoʻopaʻi o 337%. Ua kau pū ʻo ia i nā ʻauhau ma luna o nā paipu mai Kanada, Helene, India, Kōlea Hema a me Tureke.
ʻO kēlā mau ʻauhau, ma luna o ka 25% tariff i kau ʻia e Trump i ka makahiki i hala ma ka hapa nui o ke kila i lawe ʻia mai, ua hoʻohuli i nā mea no nā mea hana e like me Trinity. "Aia mākou i ke kūlana maikaʻi loa aʻu i ʻike ai i loko o hoʻokahi ʻumi makahiki," wahi a Griggs.
He kumukūʻai ko nā ʻauhau no ka hoʻokele waiwai ākea o ʻAmelika. Hoʻokahi noiʻi, na nā loea waiwai mai ka New York Federal Reserve Bank, ke Kulanui ʻo Princeton a me ke Kulanui ʻo Columbia, ua manaʻo ʻia ua lilo nā ʻauhau a Trump i nā mea kūʻai aku a me nā ʻoihana he $3 biliona i ka mahina ma nā ʻauhau i hoʻohui ʻia a me $1.4 biliona i ka mahina ma ka nalowale o ka pono.
Eia naʻe, ke paio nei ʻo Griggs e pono i ke aupuni ke pale i nā mea hana US mai ka hoʻokūkū kūpono ʻole a kākoʻo ʻia. Aia kekahi mau manawa i nīnau ai ʻo ia i kona noʻonoʻo pono no ka hoʻopukapuka ʻana i $10 miliona e wehe i ka hale hana ʻo St. Charles i ka makahiki 2007 a me nā miliona hou aʻe e hoʻonui iā ia mai ia manawa.
ʻO ka hiki ke hāʻawi i kēlā mau hōʻoia hoʻokaʻawale waiwai nui i ka hopena o ka makahiki, wahi āna, e kūpono ia mea āpau.
