Original Note:
Tarrifs cannot replace what the US government brings in through taxes. The middle and lower classes tend to be the hardest hit by tarrifs, esp on good from China. American manufacturing also gets hit through higher electronic component, chemical, and metal costs. https://www.forbes.com/sites/tiriasresearch/2024/05/28/new-china-tariffs-will-raise-the-prices-of-consumer-electronics/ https://taxfoundation.org/blog/who-really-pays-tariffs/ https://www.investors.com/news/economy/what-is-a-tariff/
