【貿戰風雲】特朗普關稅真相:美國消費者最慘承擔




高盛:美國消費者承擔特朗普關稅的最大負擔

近日,投資銀行高盛(Goldman Sachs)發布了一項新的研究,證實了美國消費者正在承擔美國總統唐納德·特朗普(Donald Trump)發起的貿易戰的最大負擔。該研究估計,美國消費者承擔了高達55%的特朗普關稅成本,而美國企業和外國出口商分別承擔了22%和18%的成本。

高盛的經濟學家還估計,特朗普的關稅已經使美國核心個人消費支出價格今年以來上漲了0.44%,並且預計到12月份將推動該指標達到3%。然而,特朗普政府一直堅持認為,關稅是由外國國家承擔的,而美國消費者並未受到影響。

在上個月與美國全國廣播公司(NBC)的“與記者見面”節目中,記者克里斯汀·韋爾克(Kristen Welker)引用了高盛早前的估計,即美國企業和消費者承擔了高達86%的特朗普關稅成本,並詢問美國財政部長史考特·貝森特(Scott Bessent)是否接受關稅是美國消費者的稅收。貝森特回答說:“不,我不接受。”

事實上,許多企業高管已經公開表示,關稅將導致消費者價格上漲。例如,沃爾瑪首席執行官道格·麥克米倫(Doug McMillon)告訴股東,雖然公司可以承擔關稅成本,但最終消費者將承擔更高的價格。

隨著特朗普政府繼續加徵進口商品關稅,美國消費者將繼續承擔更大的負擔。根據《紐約時報》的報導,新的關稅已經對包括木材、傢俱和廚櫃在內的一系列產品生效。此外,特朗普政府還開始對中國船舶在美國港口停靠徵收費用。

一些專家對特朗普政府的關稅政策提出了質疑,認為其理由站不住腳。譬如,自由主義智庫卡托研究所(Cato Institute)的經濟學家斯科特·林西科姆(Scott Lincicome)表示,特朗普政府對木材關稅的理由是“荒謬的”。他認為,如果戰爭爆發,美國國內市場將迅速找到替代來源,不會對進口木材或傢俱產生依賴。

作為編輯,我認為這項研究揭示了特朗普關稅政策的真實影響,而消費者和企業都需要為此付出代價。特朗普政府對關稅政策的堅持,已經對美國經濟和消費者造成了深遠的影響。未來,美國政府和企業需要採取更有效的措施,來減輕關稅對消費者和經濟的負面影響。

此外,我也注意到,特朗普政府的政策不僅對美國經濟造成了影響,也對非營利組織和進步團體構成了威脅。特朗普政府試圖限制政府對非營利組織的資金支持,限制私人基金會的活動,甚至取消其稅收豁免資格。作為一家獨立媒體機構,真源新聞(Truthout)也面臨著類似的挑戰,但我們將繼續堅持報道真相,獨立運作,並依靠讀者的支持。

A low-angle, wide-lens street shot in a bustling cityscape (similar to Shibuya, Tokyo). A young woman crouches confidently beside a modified, glossy purple sports car with a Japanese license plate. She wears a black graphic tee, cargo pants, white sneakers, and silver jewelry. The background features tall glass skyscrapers, colorful billboards, neon signage, and warm late-afternoon lighting. Strong perspective distortion emphasizes the height of the buildings and the car’s aggressive stance. The mood is stylish, bold, and modern, capturing urban automotive culture with a cinematic, hyper-real aesthetic. High detail, high contrast, crisp reflections, editorial fashion vibe, dynamic street energy. Use the original face exactly as it is, without changing a details. A full-body photograph of a glamorous female model in a vibrant, retro 1950s pin-up style bikini. The lighting should be bright, sunny, and highly saturated, evocative of a vintage summer advertisement or a pop art aesthetic.
Model & Outfit:
• Model: A slender woman with a confident, slightly posed expression.
• Hair & Accessories: A white and blue patterned headband tied in a bow. Bold, dark cat-eye sunglasses. Large gold hoop earrings and thick, stacked gold bangle bracelets on both wrists. Bright red lipstick.
• Swimwear: A two-piece retro bikini with a high-waisted bottom and a halter-neck top. The top is turquoise/teal with white polka dots, featuring a large bow detail at the bust. The bottom is a contrasting, high-rise, ruched style in pale peach or coral with small dark polka dots.
Setting & Composition:
• Location: A mid-century modern-style poolside scene on a bright sunny day.
• Background Details: A sparkling blue swimming pool, several brightly colored lounge chairs (yellow, teal, pink), and large beach umbrellas (striped orange and white). There are large, bright flotation devices (yellow, teal, orange inner tube) scattered around the edge of the pool.
• Composition: Vertical, full-body shot. The model is centered, and the background is slightly blurred (shallow depth of field) to keep the focus on the model.
Aesthetic Keywords:
• Vibrant, High Saturation, Retro Summer, 1950s Pin-up, Mid-Century Modern, Pop Art, Poolside Glamour, Commercial Photography, Magazine Ad, Halter Bikini, High-Waisted, Sunny Day. A young person with short blonde hair squatting confidently in front of a white sports car on a wet city street at night. Captured with a wide-angle fisheye lens for dramatic distortion. Neon signs, Japanese billboards, and glowing city lights reflect on the wet pavement. Moody, cyberpunk-inspired atmosphere with light rain and soft reflections. Casual streetwear—oversized dark sweatshirt, loose grey pants, worn sneakers. Background filled with vibrant nightlife, blurred car headlights, and bustling urban energy. High contrast, teal-orange tones, cinematic depth, film grain, atmospheric haze, shallow depth of field, 35mm film look, poster-style composition, ultra-realistic lighting.
