  • Who’s Really Dodging the Tariffs?

    Small-business owners face higher costs as a result of tariffs, expenses that are often passed on to consumers through higher prices for everyday goods.


    Tariffs punish American firms while Navarro blames foreigners.


    In both the New York Times and a White House report, Peter Navarro describes the “great transshipment scam” and alludes to a shadow network spanning more than 40 countries. This network, he says, “robbing the United States of tens of billions of dollars a year and countless manufacturing jobs.” To fix this, he wants to increase enforcement through tougher rules of origin, larger import bonds, penalties for shell companies, and an artificial intelligence system named Detective Border to assess the transshipment risk of every ship bound for an American port. Doing all of this will not only flood the Treasury with new revenues but also kick off the long-promised yet currently forestalled manufacturing renaissance. As if that were not enough, it will also make America safer.
