    You’re right, except for how early in the process the profiteering starts.

    Every single company involved will exploit the situation to add extra on top of the tariffs themselves.

    Because the already broken (in the 80s if not earlier and progressively worse ever since) system not only allows them to, but ENCOURAGES fleecing people as much as possible to maximize profits for shareholders.
