Tariffs do not tax US citizens who buy US goods.

It’s a voluntary tax. No one forces you to buy a broom anywhere, but buying locally keeps the money here.

Which autos don’t have any components made in China?

Which appliances don’t have any Chinese electrical parts?

The problem is that with today’s supply chains the consumer has very little visibility, and therefore very little choice as to where the elements of the products they buy come from.

Do you honestly think think there’s a car made with no Chinese inputs?
