And who pays gas taxes?And who pays when you tax ‘the rich’?Well, mostly you. It depends on price elasticity.
As you can see, prices are rising for goods that have been affected by Trump's higher taxes on trade, and falling for those that have not.

The answer is us, except the Chinese tariffs, those the Chinese pay (by compressing their margins to cover the tariff).And who pays the taxes on transporting goods?And who pays gas taxes?And who pays when you tax ‘the rich’?Well, mostly you. It depends on price elasticity.

The rich.
Any other questions irrelevant to the OP you wish to ask?
8% to refine it does not strike me as unreasonable.Chevron in Vegas is charging $3.50 per gallon for regular unleaded. Subtract taxes and jobber costs of $0.57 cents. Is it any wonder they had $14.8B in earnings in 2018?Supply and Demand still triumphs all formulas just have to factor in the new costs. You still can't sell stuff for more than people are willing to pay.Well, mostly you. It depends on price elasticity.

21% in taxes though, that does strike me as high.

Yet the "21%" doesn't fully pay for roadways.

Of course not.
Too busy paying for bike paths and bullet trains to nowhere.

Leftists tend to scream the loudest about sweat shop labor. Then when a president takes on China, they cry?
When did tRump "take over China?"
Chinese goods need to cost more so they will pay Americans to make them here. Then more Americans can afford them because they'll have jobs that pay living wages.Well, next Monday, if Trump hasn't gotten a trade deal with China, they are going to raise tariffs on products coming into their country. That will result in Trump raising tariffs again on Chinese goods, resulting in higher prices across the country. I expect to see it's effect by mid June if Trump and China can't come to some agreement.

Nice dream, but who is going to build the factories that we currently don't have to make those things that China does?

So, what do we do for goods in the two to several years it would take for the factory to get built? Yeah, it's nice to say that Americans would build factories and staff them with Americans, but who is really going to make that kind of investment? Most of the CEO's have been too busy moving jobs overseas, what makes you think they will build factories and bring them back?
