How long does the farce that Tariffs are paid by the exporting Country going to be a thing? By now, everyone must know the truth, right? Even the damn importers have said as much, tariffs are a tax on Americans!!!

Brazil is the world's largest exporter of beef. Beef is not labeled with "country of origin," we have all unknowingly bought Brazilian beef. With tariffs, Brazilian beef now costs more. American ranchers have used this as justification for raising their prices to match. Cha ching!

Not sure it's the ranchers, they're just upping the costs. After the major slaughterhouses were raided there are few workers. It's the choke point. There's like 4 slaughterhouses in the country all without skilled labor.

With no foreign sales, I would think there would be a glut of meat on the domestic market. Unless the chokepoint is the lack of workers in the slaughterhouses. Are they not even shipping to Thailand for dog food?
