- 4:21That's
- 4:21nothing
- 4:22new.
- 4:23Here's
- 4:24what's
- 4:24new.
- 4:25So
- 4:25on
- 4:26imports
- 4:26of
- 4:26kitchen
- 4:27cabinets
- 4:27here
- 4:27on,
- 4:28I
- 4:28think
- 4:28it's
- 4:28October
- 4:2914th,
- 4:30I
- 4:30believe
- 4:30is
- 4:30the
- 4:31date
- 4:31that
- 4:31this
- 4:31is
- 4:31going
- 4:32to
- 4:32come
- 4:32into
- 4:32effect.
- 4:33So
- 4:33in
- 4:34a
- 4:34couple
- 4:34of
- 4:34weeks
- 4:34we're
- 4:34going
- 4:34to
- 4:35see
- 4:35this
- 4:35jump
- 4:35on.
- 4:36Now
- 4:36here's
- 4:37where
- 4:37this
- 4:37makes
- 4:37a
- 4:37difference.
- 4:39There
- 4:39are
- 4:40large
- 4:40cabinet
- 4:41companies
- 4:41out
- 4:41there
- 4:42that
- 4:43say
- 4:43they're
- 4:43made
- 4:44in
- 4:44usa,
- 4:45but
- 4:45as
- 4:46of
- 4:46the
- 4:46last
- 4:46time
- 4:46I
- 4:47was
- 4:47looking
- 4:47at
- 4:47them
- 4:48and
- 4:48I
- 4:48was
- 4:48dealing
- 4:49with
- 4:49them,
- 4:50they
- 4:50were
- 4:50importing
- 4:51parts
- 4:52that
- 4:52were
- 4:52cut
- 4:53overseas
- 4:54in
- 4:54China.
- 4:55So
- 4:55for
- 4:55instance,
- 4:56some
- 4:57of
- 4:57these
- 4:57major
- 4:57cabinet
- 4:58companies,
- 4:58and
- 4:58I'm
- 4:59talking
- 4:59about
- 4:59most
- 4:59of
- 4:59the
- 4:59ones
- 5:00in
- 5:00the
- 5:00home
- 5:00centers,
- 5:01the
- 5:01craft
- 5:02maids,
- 5:02even
- 5:03the
- 5:03Belmonts
- 5:03were
- 5:03doing
- 5:04it
- 5:04for
- 5:04a
- 5:04time.
- 5:04I
- 5:04don't
- 5:05know
- 5:05if
- 5:05they
- 5:05are
- 5:05now,
- 5:06but
- 5:07I
- 5:07don't
- 5:07want
- 5:08to
- 5:08talk
- 5:08brand
- 5:08specific
- 5:09because
- 5:09they
- 5:09could
- 5:10have
- 5:10changed
- 5:10it
- 5:10and
- 5:10I
- 5:11wouldn't
- 5:11have
- 5:11caught
- 5:11it.
- 5:11So
- 5:12we're
- 5:12just
- 5:12going
- 5:12to
- 5:12talk
- 5:12about
- 5:13them
- 5:13as
- 5:13a
- 5:13whole.
- 5:14But
- 5:15generally
- 5:15speaking,
- 5:16that
- 5:16is
- 5:16one
- 5:17of
- 5:17the
- 5:17reasons
- 5:17why
- 5:18they
- 5:18left
- 5:18the
- 5:19Kitchen
- 5:19Cabinet
- 5:20Manufacturers
- 5:20association
- 5:22because
- 5:22the
- 5:22association
- 5:23was
- 5:24pushing
- 5:24for
- 5:24these
- 5:24tariffs
- 5:25because
- 5:26they
- 5:26were
- 5:26sending
- 5:27in
- 5:28raw
- 5:28parts
- 5:29cheaper
- 5:29than
- 5:30these
- 5:30manufacturers
- 5:31could
- 5:31even
- 5:31buy
- 5:31the
- 5:31sheet
- 5:32goods.
- 5:33So
- 5:33they
- 5:33were
- 5:33dumping
- 5:33them
- 5:33in
- 5:34below
- 5:34cost
- 5:35and
- 5:35that
- 5:35was
- 5:35because
- 5:36the
- 5:36government
- 5:36was
- 5:36subsidizing
- 5:37those.
- 5:38So
- 5:38what
- 5:38happened
- 5:39is
- 5:39these
- 5:39major
- 5:39manufacturers
- 5:40to
- 5:40keep
- 5:40prices
- 5:41low,
- 5:42started
- 5:42buying
- 5:43cut
- 5:43parts
- 5:44from
- 5:44overseas.
- 5:45So
- 5:45maybe
- 5:46they
- 5:46were
- 5:46shipping
- 5:46over
- 5:47plywood
- 5:47or
- 5:47particle

- 10:57to
- 10:58lumber
- 10:59is
- 10:59how
- 10:59that

- 11:00So
- 11:01I'm
- 11:01not
- 11:01worried
- 11:01about
- 11:02that.
- 11:02We

- 11:04this
- 11:04and
- 11:04to
- 11:05keep
- 11:05those
- 11:05jobs.
- 11:05In
- 11:05the
- 11:05US
- 11:06Right
- 11:07now,
- 11:07we've
- 11:07been

- 11:08the
- 11:08jobs
- 11:08coming
- 11:09out
- 11:09of
- 11:09Canada.
- 11:10They're
- 11:10the
- 11:10ones
- 11:10that
- 11:11have
- 11:11got
- 11:11all
- 11:11these
- 11:11communities
- 11:12with
- 11:12their
- 11:12sawmills
- 11:13going.
- 11:13And
- 11:13here
- 11:13in
- 11:14the
- 11:14us,
- 11:15Ours
- 11:15have
- 11:15been
- 11:15Shutting
- 11:16down,
- 11:16which
- 11:16means
- 11:16all
- 11:16those
- 11:16small
- 11:17towns
- 11:17outside
- 11:18of
- 11:18the
- 11:18areas
- 11:19like
- 11:19Portland,
- 11:20Seattle,
- 11:21Northern
- 11:21California,
- 11:22get
- 11:22into
- 11:23Idaho,
- 11:23Montana,
- 11:25all
- 11:25of
- 11:25us
- 11:25here
- 11:26on
- 11:26the
- 11:26west
- 11:26coast.
- 11:26At
- 11:27least
- 11:28all
- 11:28that
- 11:28stuff's
- 11:28been
- 11:28coming
- 11:29out
- 11:29of
- 11:29the
- 11:29north.
- 11:29So
- 11:30they're
- 11:30trying
- 11:30to
- 11:30balance
- 11:31that
- 11:31out.
- 11:32Is
- 11:32that
- 11:32going
- 11:33to
- 11:33translate
- 11:34into
- 11:34some
- 11:34bigger
- 11:34prices?
- 11:35Probably
- 11:35not.
- 11:35I
- 11:35think
- 11:35it's
- 11:35going
- 11:36to
- 11:36spool
- 11:36up
- 11:36some
- 11:37stuff.
- 11:37We'll
- 11:38start
- 11:38to
- 11:38see
- 11:38some
- 11:39of
- 11:39those
- 11:39sawmills
- 11:40cruising
- 11:40back
- 11:40up
- 11:41again,
- 11:41but
- 11:41it's
- 11:41not
- 11:41going
- 11:42to
- 11:42really
- 11:42change
- 11:42stuff.
- 11:42Now
- 11:43it
- 11:43might
- 11:43a
- 11:44little
- 11:44bit
- 11:44if
- 11:44we
- 11:44actually
- 11:44get
- 11:45house
- 11:45building
- 11:45back
- 11:46again
- 11:46and
- 11:47people
- 11:47start
- 11:47building
- 11:47homes
- 11:48again.
- 11:49But
- 11:49that's
- 11:50probably
- 11:50six
- 11:51months
- 11:51to
- 11:51a
- 11:51year
- 11:52away
- 11:52unless
- 11:52we
- 11:52see
- 11:52some
- 11:53major
- 11:53changes
- 11:54to
- 11:54the
- 11:54interest
- 11:55rates
- 11:55out
- 11:55there.
- 11:56Because
- 11:56right
- 11:56now,
- 11:57even
- 11:57if
- 11:57the
- 11:57interest
- 11:58rates
- 11:58were
- 11:58down
- 11:58low,
- 11:59many
- 11:59people
- 11:59are

- 12:01are,
- 12:02paycheck
- 12:02to
- 12:02paycheck
- 12:03out
- 12:03there.
- 12:04So
- 12:04that's
- 12:05really
- 12:05gotta
- 12:05change.
- 12:06We
- 12:06gotta
- 12:06have
- 12:07more
- 12:07cash
- 12:07in
- 12:07people's
- 12:08pockets
- 12:08and
- 12:08low
- 12:09enough
- 12:09interest
- 12:09rates
- 12:09where
- 12:10people
- 12:10want
- 12:10to
- 12:10take
- 12:10the
- 12:11risk
- 12:11to
- 12:12go
- 12:12to
- 12:12the
- 12:12next
