Tariffs are set by governments not individuals.

Why are you so interested in shutting down discussion on this topic? People are talking about and lobbying their governments on this. It's entirely reasonable that we talk about it here too.

I misread the parent comment. That said, I’m curious how you’d apply an automatic teriff? Who would enforce it?

There is no such thing as an automatic tariff that I’ve ever heard about. Tariffs have always been controlled by politicians.
