How is this a common sense policy?

If it costs insurance $100 for medicine X before tariffs and $150 after tariffs, then that difference has to be made up somewhere.

Just wait till everybody's car insurance jumps up more than expected for the same reasons

Couple issues with this:

- Medical insurance and prescription drug insurance are actually 2 separate things though they often fall under the same policy.
- Health insurers have limited the number of prescription drugs they cover.

An 18% increase in overall costs is exuberant at face value considering the above.

Kavanaugh says it is, he uses your justification for things

I mean the tariffs will make it more costly for virtually any business to operate, due to tangential expenses increasing if nothing else

Even basic stuff like office supplies & coffee at headquarters, for an insurance company or otherwise, is going up.

Overhead, cost of living, price of the product - everything is increasing from the direct or holistic impact of these tariffs. I don't think any sector is entirely immune from it

2026 mid-terms are going to be a bloodbath for GOP if that continues and gov is not addressing it

Yes, in terms of standard goods and service - you're absolutely correct.

The problem premium costs have continued to rise, long before tariffs for various different reasons. Imagine telling policy holders that they'll continue to be in medical debt or will go into medical debt because it costs the insurer $0.75 more per stack of copier paper or that it costs more now to purchase the generic coffee grounds in bulk to stock company offices.

Its great that you see the error in your ways in using the logic of "common sense " policy in this instance, lets hope you grow in other areas

A lot of Americans don’t even realize that prices are not coming back down even if the tariffs are rolled back.

Welcome to your new normal.

As someone who works in this space I’ve been following this case for months.

It’s a fascinating contradiction that significantly weakens their emergency arguments. While DOJ claims it’s impossible to obligate $11.5 billion in foreign aid by September 30, they simultaneously admit they’re already planning to spend $6.5 billion of those same funds!!!

Even more telling, organizations are reporting that their terminated contracts are being reinstated with new award numbers while the old awards remain in termination status….essentially recreating the same programs they claimed were contrary to American interests just months ago!!!

This gymnastics of a $4 billion rescission proposal makes no sense. If the administration can scramble to restart billions in terminated contracts within weeks of the fiscal year deadline, their claims about “impossible timelines” and “irreparable foreign policy harm” ring hollow.

When the government argues to the Supreme Court that Judge Ali’s injunction puts “the Executive Branch at war with itself” while simultaneously obligating most of the contested funds, WHY are there emergency claims????

The justices should ask: if you can restart $6.5 billion in foreign aid programs in three weeks, why exactly can’t you handle the remaining $4 billion?

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the United States would have to refund half of the tariffs if has collected if it loses its case on President Trump’s trade agenda at the Supreme Court.
