I've had to explain tariffs a lot lately...
I work for a wine importer. I literally have to sign legal documents attesting to the payment of tariffs before containers are taken off of ships. The amount of times this week I have had to explain that I do understand how tariffs work is too many.
Ooh actually could you type out that explanation cuz having a like, concrete “here’s a persons job who deals with this” way to explain it may be handy. (But also you don’t gotta if you’re super tired of it.)
