Who pays tariffs?

[Nostra]

We do. Anyone who buys things with tariffs on them pays.

Anyone who buys things with corporate taxes on them pays.

 

[Nostra]

He's full of shit. The consumer ultimately pays the price of tariffs. Period.
Doesn't Trump get a lot of his shit made in China?

Who pays the price of corporate taxes?

Who pays the price of corporate taxes?

Jesus H Christ. Just STOP!
Repeating your talking points doesn't change the answer.
You have no idea what you're talking about.

“Low productivity “ green jobs?

Where are you getting that from?

From reality.

You should see how productive oil jobs are. It's crazy!

How is that going to work out when the US hits peak oil production again after a few years?

Oil jobs will still be more productive than nailing solar panels to a roof.

Oil jobs in other countries, but not here in the USA.

 

[Independent thinker]

Yes, it is consumers who end up paying the tariffs! Does anyone disagree?

Have you told this to Biden?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Oil jobs in other countries, but not here in the USA.

American oil jobs are highly productive.

 

[BackAgain]

Stupid question. OP is brainless.

Depending on the amount of the tariff, it could make Joe Q. Citizen say “fuck that shit. I’ll buy a non foreign competitor.” That means that nobody pays the tariff since people won’t buy the product.

 

[Orangecat]

Most goods are imported.

Indeed. Perhaps if they became more expensive, due to tariffs, domestic manufacturing would increase.

 

[White 6]

Do higher corporate taxes drive up prices?

Yes or no, dufus.

On higher profits, No they don't Nostral.

 

[Lesh]

How do you define productive?

 

[Missourian]

Yes, it is consumers who end up paying the tariffs! Does anyone disagree?

So you ALSO agree consumers pay all corporate and business taxes...correct?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

How do you define productive?

The correct way.

How do you define it?

 

[Leviticus]

Indeed. Perhaps if they became more expensive, due to tariffs, domestic manufacturing would increase.

The vast majority of US manufacturers don't want to manufacture in the U.S. They want to outsource the work to countries like china that have little or no wage and labor protections.

Tariffs won't change this since the companies can just charge more to customers nd make the same profits.

Until we start punishing companies for the use of sweatshop, or better yet outright abolish free trade with companies that allow them nothing eill chsnge.

Tariffs are a punishment for businesses that outsource for cheap labor.

So has that happened in the US to any product?

No its a punishment on the American consumer. We did it to ourselves by not making a point of buying American goods.
