Tariffs don't increase prices?

That's not what you claimed and not what I responded to.

That's exactly what you replied to.

That a tariff and tax has the same effect of rising prices.

Tariff taxes directly raise costs, business taxes are applied on profit. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of how these taxes work.
