Oh, China pays by not selling their crap here. This is leading Chinese factories to relocate to just survive. I've read articles interviewing these factory owners. That is a huge price, since once the factory moves to a new country, it is not helping China.
Mexico will find their economy is impacted because they sell less. That is a price.
If there is any American that puts the price of his avocados above the security of his nation, I don't think much of them.
Other than avocados....what are some of the other (largest amount) of goods imported, from Mexico.
I realize they pay but it’s not the way most people think. Most people think tariffs are assessed on the country directly at the port of entry. They are not. But the point of the post is they won’t be paying for the wall in tariffs. It’s not like tariff money is going to be collected and then used to pay for the wall. That’s my point. Anyone who thinks that will happen 1) doesn’t understand how tariffs work and 2) is naive.
