  • Unless the government has some special fund strategy where the money Nintendo paid in tariffs only went to the billionaires or the wars and the money refunded to Nintendo came from only infrastructure and social programs, it was only paid once. The first time, it was paid to the federal government via Nintendo. The second time, Nintendo was paid from the federal government’s money. Either consumers didn’t pay the first time because the federal government’s money is their money, or they didn’t pay the second time because the federal government’s money isn’t their money.

    That doesn’t make it right that Americans keep having to pay tariffs on everything. This is just an inefficient and illegal way to raise taxes.
