In the business world... prices of any good or service are based on the "cost of goods"

Your typical Corporation might have 100+ components that make up cost of goods. Stuff like item cost, transport cost, labor cost, regulatory costs, taxes and tariffs.

Every business prices it's goods based on this and functionally... there is no difference between tariffs and taxes.

I expect those in favor of Corporate Taxation are also in favor of tariffs... right?

Both are paid by the consumer OR vendors, employees or shareholders of the Corporation.

And the $$ goes into the General Fund.
