This Is How You Lose the Tariff War

[Suppressed Poet]

I’m still amazed on how the majority of people don’t understand that the consumer ends up paying the tariff.

Ehhh..yes the consumer always pays higher than the cost of doing business, but theoretically (and that’s all this whole political theater with Trump now really is to be clear) a 25% tariff would place Mexican and Canadian businesses outside of the competitive global marketplace. The consumer would pay higher prices for similar domestic or other foreign products that don’t have that severe competitive disadvantage.
