The current administration's trade policies are causing significant harm to ordinary Americans and small businesses across the country. Large corporations have the resources and leverage to negotiate exemptions or pass increased costs onto suppliers and consumers. However, small businesses and working families lack such power, leaving them to bear the brunt of tariff-driven price hikes on everyday goods and services. This regressive taxation disproportionately impacts lower-income households, exacerbating economic inequalities. Rather than fortifying American industry, these policies concentrate market domination among a few mega-corporations while undermining the backbone of the nation's economy - small enterprises and the middle class. A reassessment prioritizing the interests of the majority over an elite few is urgently needed to safeguard economic opportunity and upward mobility for all Americans.
