Breitbart Business Digest: Why Miran Says Exporters Pay Most of the Tariffs

Basic economics says the answer to the question of who bears the burden of a tax depends on flexibility. Miran’s point is simple: where exporters would otherwise eat a lot of the tariff, they have the strongest reason to reroute. He points to comparisons with Canada, the U.K., the EU, Mexico, and others and argues the U.S. doesn’t “stick out” in a way consistent with large tariff-driven inflation.
