Seems like pretty straightforward microeconomics 101 to me.
It's not. The assumption is that if Costco up for these Chinese companies in the way of tariffs oh, that they will pass them on to the American consumer in higher prices. The fallacy of that argument lies in the fact that if they could charge the American consumer more, they would already have done so.
They will still pass it at least partially. But demand will reduce too.
What's weird is could have swore that he's said over and over that China pays these tariffs? 🤔
Love those sensational headlines. The article actually says they *may* cost *up to* $1000*. Well yeah, and I *may* become a trillionaire and give everyone *up to* $1,000,000. #cheapjournalism
Where did you get your economics degree?

Tariffs caused great depression. Smoot Hawley tax
Let me guess. Public schools?
$1000 is a small donation to make towards the war against Chinese imperialism. I donate a lot more to the Muir Woods every year.
Are you Japanese?
I agree with this sentiment. Fuck CCP and PRC
Yes, but it's going to US Treasury. It will reduce budget deficit a bit.
I went to the store and I had a choice of 10 different things all made in China. How is a tax going to get me to buy from the US? The decision is made by companies not consumers.
And if you concerned about the deficit, remember Trump raise the deficit by 2 trillion already when the economy is great now and people are paying a lot of income tax.
I would pay 10k more if it hurts China!

Biden’s new tax proposal is wild
Don’t worry. Mexico will pay for these tariffs, just like they’re paying for the wall.
