> the deal fits a pattern in the Trump administration where the president urges companies to take measures, such as domestic investments, for example, to prevent the imposition of tariffs in an effort to bring in jobs and revenue to America.

So they will be exempt from the tariffs if they just pay the 15% sales tax directly to the Fed?

I think it tries to compare the export tax to the last week news about chips/semis to be subject to 100% tariffs unless they also have manufacturing in the US.

So yes, they won't have to pay tariffs because they also manufacture in the US, not because they'd (supposedly) have to pay the export tax (though it's hard to see how these two could be mutually exclusive).

To the Fed? Where did you get that from?
