we've been talking about inflation for a long time just how high prices have gone when you put a tariff on a product it is not that the other country gets taxed per se it's that the cost gets pushed on to the consumer here in the United States that's how it works that's that is the economics of it when people ask what's the math they say oh we're getting tax how are we getting tax I don't understand it means that you're going to walk into Walmart you're going to look at the product and price tag for the product that you want is going to cost more not less that's it it's that simple and how former president Trump can speak the way he does about what he thinks the Tariff is going to do the idea that it's going to tax the Chinese or it's going to attack it's just it's just not the reality of the situation
