I love how the "free traders" want to have their cake and eat it too. On the one hand they say that China will not pay for the tariffs, American consumers will, but on the other hand they say that American farmers will pay if China increases their tariffs. So which is it?
Do American farmers pay if China increases their tariffs or does the Chinese citizen pay? Does America pay for other countries high tariffs or do our companies/farmers pay?

If China tariffs are bad for US farmers then US tariffs should be bad for China manufacturing, right?
If US citizens are paying for US tariffs then Chinese citizens are paying for Chinese tariffs, right? So how can China grow at 6%+ witj high tariffs on imports than the us has on imports. I means the Chinese citizen is paying for those Chinese tarrifs right so their economy....
....should be imploding not expanding at a greater than 6% clip. Not to mention the VAT they charge importers. So what gives? Why is China growing at 6%+ with these Chinese tariffs and VAT on their imports but the US will go into a recession if we place the same on our imports?
🤔🤔🤔🤔 it's almost as if the multinational companies that make trillions on our "free trade" polices want us to believe that the last of economics work differently in China and the US for some reason.
Damn autocorrect. *Last should be laws*
