The intent is to highlight the stupidity of the tariffs.

They raised money to dig a hole to then fill it in again, for similar reasons.

Looks like the trolls are starting to emerge from other platforms.

There's currently not enough industrial capacity in the US to manufacture card games. Simple as that. Trying to do it would likely end up still being more expensive than the tariffs, and probably delay your product.

Because its a meme

Because US produced cardstock sucks ass. Maybe someone will change that in the future; it's more likely than things like die cast sheet metal, which is an industry that has to be rebuilt from almost scratch. The Game Crafter, the most popular board game prototyping service in the US, gets their cardstock from Germany, because they want it to not suck.

They’re just using the law to their advantage. They’re good businessmen.

Is this wit or a genuine request that one of us explainsthejoke.com?

I recognize the hill you're trying to die on but good luck. You're going to find a lot of overpriced rehashes of games that already exist.

You can find plenty of those. What you can't do is find games with all the components manufactured in the US. Cardstock, in particular, just doesn't exist in US production at the quality card games would want. If you want stuff that isn't semi-transparent in bright light, then you don't buy cardstock from US producers.
