That’s the thing many do not understand about tariffs. It’s great to,say “buy 100% American and avoid the 20%” but what do people tend to purchase a lot of constantly? Technology. Name a cell phone that has 100% American parts? I’ll tell you now, Apple, Samsung have very few American components in them, and even the few American components, are made with rare earth materials that are found in China (meaning 35% tariffs for that new cell phone), and if the rare earth is mined in the US, it costs way more than the 35% tariff would cost, because of labor, environmental laws, etc. Want that brand new 100 inch TV that’s being shown on TikTok? Again, 35% tariff (rare earths again). Want a new PC/Laptop? Again 35%, those pesky rare earths, never mind the semi conductors come from Taiwan. Yes there has been a push for the past 3 years to make semiconductors in the US, but guess what, even when those factories open up, guess where the rare earths are going to be coming from? And guess what China has been doing steadily for the past 5-6 years- placing limits on rare earth exports. Like I said, there is almost nothing that is 100% American made, and almost everything has some sort of imported component involved. The US gets 86% of its tomatoes from Mexico, even though the US produces hundreds of millions of pounds domestically, but the amount needed cannot be grown domestically (keep in mind ind, tomatoes are in a lot of foods and used numerous different ways). Slapping tariffs on items can easily start a trade war, and the US would lose in the long run, because I do not see Americans be willing to go back to what it was like when I was a kid in the 1980’s where certain fruits and vegetables were only available during certain times of the year. We have had access to stuff year round thanks to importing, but that could be coming to and end.
