I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing this to consumers, and 3) repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

The de minimis exemption, which allows low-value goods to come into this country tax-free, is slowly being phased out. It's already gone for Chinese and Hong Kong imports. Full repeal is set for July 2027. IMO, full impact of tariffs will be felt by then (combined with all else)
