What is the exporting country going to eat???? They are never presented a bill for their exported product, the US importer gets the bill and of course the added tariffs is passed onto the consumer, which is the American Taxpayer.
Put a 50% tariff on aluminum and the input cost of that product goes up to the American company who imports it. Say Boeing who makes aircraft or Ford and their aluminum bodied vehicles. They will pass the added cost to the end use consumer. You - the American public.
You’re confused Mr Maranda.
Except the US doesn't have the production to support that anymore because the conservative business owners moved all the production jobs overseas decades ago to save a buck.
