I think the makkelijk should go before zinnen (or was that the joke?)

That was someone else and not the killer.

A lot of the priming research seems iffy on its own, but yeah in this case the effects are also implausibly big. If seeing a tiny flag noticeably shift people to the right after months then the US should be a country full of psychopaths (moreso than it is ^^), ppl see flags almost daily.

While I agree with the premise of your blog, I would bet *a lot of money* on none of those studies replicating.

Could be a Gricean norms thing where the mirror condition is so needlessly complicated to an average participant that they may think they must be misunderstanding and it's a gamble. When someone explains it verbally that's less of an issue.

So long story short, under $200 for very basic pair of sneakers (remember we started with a $70 pair) seems doable even when cost of materials rises quite a bit. Fancier sneakers under $200 probably not.

You can and should!
I don't think you should take any of those numbers as a given but for me it helps thinking about how the cost would change. E.g., The US is a top leather importer and China is a top leather exporter, so the cost of leather would also go up.
For methods idk

So if you assume labor to cost about 10* as much, it would be $30 in labor per pair. If material-costs don't change, based on the linked page a pair of sneakers that would normally be $70 would go up to $130. If the materials need to be imported and are tariffed ofc. it would go up by more. 2/2

Your comment made me curious, there's no answer here, but it does specify all the current costs. It estimates $3 in labor for a pair of sneakers in a country where (based on quick google, maybe wrong) minimum wage is $150 per month.
