The context and scale of those examples are quite different. Seems much more akin to a VAT refund. I agree there’s no precedent or mechanism. The fact remains they should be returned. The fact that Dems aren’t campaigning on this is telling.

A CLOSER LISTEN @acloserlisten.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

There’s no mention of any refund until 2026. So what do you mean by that’s how they’ve always worked? Tarrifs have been collected, we can debate their efficacy, but they’ve never been refunded and so people are right to be angry that tarrifs paid for by consumers are returned to corporations.

When were tarrifs refunded before?
