Tariffs sound patriotic — but they’re really just taxes. In Colombia, people pay sky-high import duties on American cars, making them less accessible. Meanwhile, Americans enjoy cheap Colombian coffee and flowers — thanks to lower tariffs.
But when the U.S. imposes tariffs of its own, it’s just joining the global race to the bottom. Higher prices, fewer choices, and shared misery. Tariffs don’t protect prosperity — they punish it. #short
