“So...the price I would have to pay for a Carrier air conditioner is going to go up by as much as 30%?”

Yep.

Tariffs make certain people rich in the country and the rest of us broke.

You would think Trumpers would look at Venezuela and see how great protectionism works, but I doubt they can make the intellectual leap.

As if Cruz’s socialistic VAT tax will create nirvana. Carrier is not the only company that makes air conditioners.

Bull. Income taxes make us broke. Tariffs are good and consumption based even better.
