Tariff rebates [View all]

This is just nuts.

If the foreign country pays the tariff, as the Administration says, why would we get a rebate?

In reality, the importer pays the tariff and passes it along to us. Why give us a rebate? Why not just do away with the tariff or reduce it and avoid all the bureaucracy in between?

Who’s making these decisions, the Marx Brothers.
