    Tariffs are not merely an internal issue though. Sure they hurt the consumers the most, but they still are a damage of the people trying to sell the items too. Those tariffs do result in people buying less that’s why they exist in the first place.

      The USA has never really cared about consumers being able to buy things. If they did they’d make sure to pay them enough to pay for things but they’ll cause recession after recession and then bitch about people, who they told not to drink lattes to save money, not buying their useless garbage.
