This is the part many people fail to grasp about corporate taxes, tariffs, and fees in general. The corporations are just tax collectors for the added burden on the general public. There’s no altruistic integrity going on in the corporate world that says, “we shouldn’t pass this cost on to the consumer, we have to pay our fair share.” Shouting about raising taxes on corporations is begging for consumers to pay more taxes.
That’s… not how tariffs work. No one externally is paying anything. The customer pays.
