    We hurt y’all, y’all hurt us and the rich get richer. We’re all pawns in a game we’re forced to play.

    This is how tarrifs work.

    I imported some product from the EU to the U.S. for my business. U.S. customs slapped a 10% tarrif on the shipment.

    Supplier said “your countries stupidity, your problem.” Couldn’t really argue with the supplier.

    I paid the 10% tarrif to get the shipment in.

    I then then added the increased charges on the invoice to the customer. Who is also in the U.S.
