We import about $30 billion a month from Mexico.
1st Month at 5% = $1.5 billion
2nd Month at 10% = $3.0 billion
3rd Month at 15% = $4.5 billion
4th Month at 20% = $6.0 billion
5th Month at 25% = $7.5 billion
6th Month... alright already, they’ve paid for the wall.
To compare the size of the tariff income, the US govt. spends a $1B every 6 hours on deficit spending.
