    This. It’s basically a fucking stupid version of forcing the increased pricing onto us to increase corporate profits or whatever their end goal is. If China is charged 10% more to get their pieces to us. They are not taking that hit over our internal political retardation.

      China isn’t charged shit to send us stuff. The tariffs are paid by the company importing the goods (aka the buyer)
