I think you'd be surprised at how many businesses don't like any sort of income loss. So the consumer pays the full tariff every time. The lemonade is now $1.50
If demand is inelastic... Sure... Food rent gas
But people can easily either not buy or find a substitute for lemonade lol... That's bow free markets generally work
Electronics can be used until they break!
Non tariff lemonade is $2 because it's local and "organic". And it's not gross Commie lemonade.
