Topics/Treasury data shows tariffs cost households $1,200 as Commerce Department spreads false claims/Question
Social media exploded with posts claiming "tariffs make other countries pay taxes to America" throughout 2025, despite the Tax Foundation documenting that American consumers pay 100% of tariff costs—an average of $1,300 per family annually. The misinformation serves Trump's political interests by hiding the regressive tax burden from working families. When friends share tariff lies on Facebook, how have informed citizens cut through the propaganda?
