Suddenly there a bunch of construction cost experts on this Message Board. Who knew?

So What 

 

It matters because otherwise there could be multiple threads on the same topic which would clog up this board. That's why on game day, there is only one designated thread to discuss the game as it is playing, so the site doesn't become overwhelmed and slowdown or worse.

 

It's also a matter of courtesy not to post something someone else has already posted. Just like ethical journalists always credit their source(s) and/or the original poster. Otherwise the original source is peeved.

I doubt that. I know a lot of people think "tariffs will only add 10% to the cost of the end product!" or "if supplies aren't coming from tariffed countries, no issues!" but that's not what happens (not saying YOU specifically).

 

Add 10%+ to every bit of manufacturing & distribution up & down the supply chain, plus whatever price increases these guys will add to keep their expected margins, keep up with expected inflation, or simply take advantage of the opportunity to raise costs. Then you factor in if these companies use labor, shipping or whatever from affected countries at any point in the chain. A company may be importing materials from a country outside of tariffs, but that doesn't mean who they're importing from doesn't have their own costs tied in with another tariffed country.

 

And given how interconnected so many of these companies/countries are, always looking for the cheapest route possible while increasing their own margins, prices go up across the board & leak into other markets.

Meh....most of the structrual building costs have been paid for. Shipping,maybe. But nothing has even kicked in yet in the ways of tarrifs. It's just a fact. Zero implications of cost due to tarrifs(that haven't happened as of yet).Not debating economics here,just pointing that fact out

And sports franchise marketing experts as well.

Priorities, ok

This sounds like an episode of "Love It Or List It". Is Hillary building the stadium and now she needs more money for the budget?

totally mismanaged.   There should be a dome for this amount.
