Tariffs do not tax us. Tariffs tax our competition.

Seriously? Tariff: A tariff may be either tax on imports or exports (trade tariff)

It's a tax on IMPORTS. Who pays the tax? The importer - the US consumer. You're woefully ignorant if you believe otherwise.

When a product from Brazil is imported into the US, who collects the tariff? Who pays that tariff?

You really need to educate yourself...

An import tariff is a fairly easy consumption tax to avoid, just stay out of ChinaMart™. LOL!

There is no tariff of any amount, on goods made in America, grown in America, or drilled out of the ground in the United States of America.

Not one penny.

Simple solution.

Buy American. No tax.
