red viking Posted February 14 Posted February 14 A few idiots on here so let me explain what this is really about. It's quite simply a regressive tax on poorer people. Helps domestic manufacturers slightly (while discouraging innovation to cut costs and truly compete) but mostly just a tax on the poor. Rich people don't buy nearly as much from China, etc relative to their income. There is no "external revenue.," that's another winger lie. The tariffs merely get passed on to the consumers. The other countries simply don't export quite as much. That's the net impact on them.

Then our money is worthless. then INFLATION ! you dig?

Get ready for inflation to accelerate due to manpower shortages, due more to deportations of low wage immigrants.

The value of the dollar predicts what you can buy for an hour of work. deporting criminals doesn't affect the workforce and Seasonal work force will continually come and go. Immigrants in factories assimilate and become citizens. 1

Do u understand the difference between a trade deficit vs a fiscal deficit. Completely different. It also won't change the trade deficit a lot either. Edited February 14 by red viking
