As a consumer I cannot be compelled to buy anything; so therefore I will not pay tariff UNLESS I WANT TO. That's the truth which makes the tariff far superior to income tax.
Face it, you are a socialist/progressive that is tacitly supporting the income tax by fighting the tariff. This puts you and your ilk at odds with the founding of both the country and the Republican Party. It also makes you a globalist and not a nationalist. So you are not a patriot because you can be either a globalist or a patriot but not both. The two things are mutually exclusive.
The world is catching on. Communion and fascism were defeated during the last century and globalism will be defeated this century. Globalist/Free Traders are on the way out. Your false econ-religion will die.
You can’t just not buy anything. And even domestic products use imports (and vice versa.)
Let’s say, for example, that you decide to evade paying a tariff tax by buying an American car. The American car companies use a lot of imported steel. They have to pay a tariff on that, and that raises the price of the car. They pass that to you, so you’re paying the tax.
Do you drink coffee? Unless you use exclusive Kona, it’s imported. If we were to impose tariffs on coffee beans, we’d all pay that.
I don’t think you understand how much imported material is in U.S.-made products, and vice versa. And any tariff on any of it is passed along to you.
