    Another thought I had was, the tarrifs were a sales tax and not a supply chain supply issue deeper then that. Why is the fed trying to contain prices except when they exceed these tax increases. It some how does not make sense to me.

    The other problem with inflation is fed has limited options and that usually means slowing the economy and the effect of that is not evenly distributed.
