When the hell has a company ever not passed a cost onto a consumer?
Flowing in???? 😂😂😂The USA cosumers pay the increas in price. So ... Make America Pay Again
I think one of the biggest misconceptions is that Trump's tariffs only affect big businesses. It's not that simple—these tariffs can trickle down to everyday consumers, impacting the prices of goods we buy regularly. I made the mistake of assuming tariffs were just a "big business problem" until I noticed my grocery bill creeping up.
The tarriffs are paid by US consumers or US importers
For people who don't understand. In tariffs the tax goes to government and the burden of price rise to consumers. America's citizen should get ready to pay more for daily necessities.
Yet incredibly? Prices are still going up in the US.
RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
Imagine what happens if all the countries unite and implement reciprocal tariffs against USA 😮😮
It’s really cool. I was honored with this video. Thank you for your work
