US to put 25% tariffs on dGPUs,motherboards,PSUs and other components made in China

I don't really understand the argument that prices go up because of tariffs. If companies thought the market would tolerate those high prices, then they'd be priced that way even if tariffs weren't a thing, surely?
 
The tariffs are paid by the importers, not the manufacturers. Who then pass the cost on to distributors...who then pass the cost on to retailers...who then pass the cost on to customers.
 
I feel sorry for most Americans. Guess they got what they voted for. And as for all these jobs coming back to the US.......won't happen. They'll just move them to countries where wages are low and people don't mind working stupid long hours and there are few or weak labour laws. The latter might be true for the US but the wages, nope. Will probably be difficult getting that calibre of American to work those long hours, too, methinks.
 
The skills and knowledge have long left the US so would take decades to get the education system geared up to train the future workers.
