How Tariffs Work - Why Tariffs Might Not Be Helping Like You Think

Have you ever wondered why prices are rising on everyday items
like food, cars, and household appliances? It could be due to
tariffs! In this video, I break down how tariffs really work, who
actually pays them, and why they might not be helping Americans
as much as you think. As a business owner who imports goods, I’ve
experienced firsthand the impact tariffs have on prices and
consumers.


Learn how tariffs affect the U.S. economy, increase prices, and
sometimes cost more jobs than they save. I’ll also show you how
to tackle common misconceptions about tariffs and explain them
clearly when you hear people talking about them.


By the end of this podcast, you’ll understand:


- Who really pays for tariffs (Hint: it’s not the foreign
country)


- How tariffs raise prices on food, cars, electronics, and more


- Why 93% of economists agree tariffs hurt U.S. consumers


- Real examples of how tariffs affect American jobs and
industries


If you’ve heard politicians claim tariffs are a great way to
protect American jobs, this video will give you the facts you
need to question those claims.
