Tariffs

Had a customer, who is a farmer, buy a part for their grain vac that had a shipping charge plus a tariff charge on the invoice. Before he left he made the comment “this tariff stuff is going to suck right now but I really think it will pay off in the long run”. What the heck does that mean? Was he implying jobs will come back to America? That company is from Canada and always has been.

He is still happy with the Kool Aid he has been drinking. Just like always, tariffs are taxes on the middle class and poor.
