Original Note:
A Tariff is a tax, and US Tariffs are paid by American entities. Tariffs are paid by the person who imports an item, not by the country that provides it. https://taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/what-tariff-and-who-pays-it Analysis of Trump's prior tariffs found that US Consumers bore nearly ALL of the economic burden of these policies. https://taxfoundation.org/blog/who-really-pays-tariffs/
