Comment on Couldn't someone living near a border just go over and buy stuff and skip the tariffs?

I live a few miles from the border and cross at least weekly. You could generally get away with this for a handful of things, especially if you’re smart about it (dispose of all packaging and tags, have an otherwise legit reason for a short visit, etc).
But if they question you, and they determine you’re intentionally lying about it, you can expect to pay additional fines and lose several hours of your life.
