Eh, I think it is just crazy to those of us in North America that import duties can be that high.


"as of May 2019, the US has the highest tariff rate among all developed nations with a trade-weighted tariff rate of 4.2%"


US tariffs tend not to be on consumer goods though, right? Also, I'm curious how much that number has changed over the last 4 years. Were we also at the top in 2016?


It's increased recently due to tarriffs on China imports
