      What economics class did you get? All I got was a bunch of pro-capitalist propoganda without any serious examination of economic theory.

        You dont need to be taught shit to figure out who would pay for it. You must be absolutely brain dead to not figure this out on your own. But yet here we are

          the black Panthers didn’t make fun of people who couldn’t read, they taught them how to read. You should have a bit more of that mentality, most people don’t understand how tariffs work because they’ve never needed to.

            Those people probably bever gotten to opportunity to lwarn to read. These people clearly can read and could have looked it up for themselves. Besides you don’t need to know what tariffs are, from the context there js only a single deduction you can make. The US population would pay for it.

                All fine and dandy with me. But I’ll never allow willful ignorance to be a credible defense. If they can post on twitter, they can open wikipedia. But alas, apparently people think it is.

        I think I remember hearing about tariffs in 3rd or 4th grade history and civics, like when they were talking about the causes of secession from Great Britain. This was in the 80s.
