12:04Now PlayingWho is paying the brunt of the costs for Trump’s tariffs? According to Dilbert creator Scott Adams, it’s U.S. oligarchs, not consumers, who are on the hook for the added costs, and as a result these economic moves mark the beginning of a new “golden age.”
Adams’ assertion drew sharp rebuttals, especially from a user named Curious Mr. Fox, who backed his critique with economic data showing consumers actually bore most of the costs. Despite Adams citing outlets like the Wall Street Journal and Goldman Sachs to support his claim, skepticism remained high, especially among those distrustful of establishment sources. As Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss, the exchange became a spectacle of internet drama, economic quibbling, and political sniping—with the winner yet to be determined.
