So, after tarrifs were declared an illegal tax and the money now needing to be refunded, I guess they’ll just give it to the businesses who will have a nice boon in revenue, won’t reduce the prices, and we all can just eat shit?

If I was rich, I’d give the money to my favorite Socialist candidates, but I can always use a couple grand to remain alive.
That’s why our wages have been so stagnant for so long.
The employers take the money they would have given you in wage increases, keep a big chunk of it for the shareholders, but use some of it to bribe politicians into keeping wages low. Do that a few times and you have a “strong” ecconomy to attract foreign investors, which will drive up your share peices even more. On top of that, there is no counter force that can afford to counter-bribe the politicians. That ultimately becomes a feedback loop, which is how and why we’re in this position now.
The politicians don’t work for us, they work for the donors.
