The reason this point isn't made is that it's not accurate.

Everyone gets 10%, the formula was used for calculating the duties for Annex I countries who get more.

See attached:
"The additional ad valorem duty on all imports from all trading partners shall start at 10 percent..."

“Imports of aluminum articles and derivative aluminum articles from Argentina, Australia, Canada, Mexico, EU countries, and the United Kingdom will be subject to the revised tariff rate of 25 percent ad valorem” beginning 3/12/25

I don't think a lot of non-Californians understand how insane Proposition 13 is.

1% cap on ad valorem, properties aren't reassessed until they're sold, and you can literally inherit property valuations.

Trump signed an EO officially raising tariffs on aluminum and steel to 50% starting June 4

Can't believe it's been nearly 218 years since them slags made stamp duty as valorem on estates, it still freaks my nut out to this day.
Mad that residential Stamp Duty is so damaging and yet raises such a small sum of money.

Bailout. I read that statewide property-tax revenue fell immediately by more than 50% because of the 1% ad valorem cap portion of Prop 13 1978.

Sacramento saw this coming and passed some bailouts.

Last few minutes of work, flipping through the White Dwarf that was delivered yesterday.

This picture of Gadriel still sends me.

Why does he look so zooted?

The White House issued an Executive Order to address threats from Russia. As a result, it imposes a 25% ad valorem duty on Indian imports into the United States. The tariff will go into effect in 21 days from today.

We invented the income tax because for 130 years more than 80% of all taxes collected were levied against property ad valorem by your local municipal government. That's what "The government" meant to people that whole time. But by the 20th century, wealth was no longer concentrated in real property.
Trump: "You know, our country was the strongest, believe it or not, from 1870 to 1913. You know why? It was all tariff based. We had no income tax." (This is nonsense.)

The Empire passes new legislation that limits property tax assessments to grow by the lessor of inflation or 2%, and a max ad valorem tax of 1%. Everyone lives happily ever after.

Just to explain things, we now get the country tariff with the ad valorem tax slapped on top of that. Normal countries (read: not the US) only charge the ad valorem plus a bit of handling fee.

8/ Smoot-Hawley also imposed an ad valorem tax of 25-35 percent on the declared value of each imported movie. I expect that Trump would use the same mechanism in this instance. Of course, this resulted in foreign countries imposing their own tariffs on US movies in retaliation.

*for transaction values over $3mil*

For transaction values under $1mil it’s a -$21% decrease in ad valorem fees
📢 A multimillion-dollar gap between what a private operator charges the government and the value of customer fees could leave home owners on the hook for higher charges.

Curious to see how they calculated "tariffs charged to the USA". I'm sure it's based on a rigorous methodology converting non-tariff barriers into ad-valorem equivalents. Definitely not numbers plucked from thin air.
Read it and weep.

Sous couvert de “transition écologique”, des forêts entières sont rasées pour installer des panneaux solaires.
Dans les Hautes-Alpes, à La Roche-des-Arnauds, l'une d'elle est aujourd’hui menacée par un projet porté par Valorem.

Trump signs executive order imposing additional 25% tariffs on India over Russian oil imports

“I consider it necessary and appropriate to impose an additional ad valorem duty on imports from India, which directly or indirectly purchases oil from the Russian Federation,” the document states.
