You said there is no instance that a consumer paid tariffs. FedEx and UPS are the ones who ship what you paid for, yes.
If YOU personally order something internationally and it is subject to applicable duties, when it arrives at customs, customs/carrier procedures can require you to pay the import duty before receiving the package, or it will remain in their custody until YOU pay the dues.
So, anyways, as I have said, it is not JUST corporations who paid the tariffs.
Right, but who did you pay it to? If you paid Customs directly, you paid the terrifs, of you paid UPS they paid they tarrif and you just reimbursed them. There’s an important difference.
There is no important difference. You just acknowledged that depending on who you paid, depends on if you paid the tariffs. I like that your goal post has wheels so you can keep moving it.
Yes there is an important difference. If you paid customs you paid the terrifs and you get the refund. If you paid UPS, you reimbursed ups for the tarrif they paid to customs, and they get the refund.
The difference is who gets the refund, that’s the whole thing we’re talking about.
