The Hidden Cost of Tariffs
While tariffs bring in government revenue, they also raise prices on imported goods — from electronics to clothing to auto parts. Those higher costs are often passed directly to consumers.
That means Americans are, in effect, funding their own dividend checks through higher prices at the checkout counter.
Economists warn this creates a cycle:
- Tariffs raise prices
- Consumers pay more
- Government collects more revenue
- Government sends back part of it
- Inflation risks increase
Investor Kevin O’Leary recently called the idea of tariff-funded checks a “short-term band-aid” that could worsen inflation rather than solve underlying economic problems.
I guess the critics are there to teach you something. It seems that yo don’t have the ability to add and substact. First the terrifs never took in enough money to payout 2000 per person. Second the courts have ruled that most of the terrifs were illegal, as most things this nut case does are, and therefore had to be returned. Interesting all the money you paid in terriffs now will goback to the companiers, nothing to the ones who actually paid it. I advice that you do checking of facts before you make stupid statements.
This would be nice.
Better send the check ASAP “TO SEE IS TO BELIEVE!”
