Do you believe in price controls and tariffs?

Tariffs have been in the news a lot lately, a very fundamental part of President Trump of USA 🇺🇸 general economic strategy, but are they a good implement for the good of the people he is trying to represent?

Many are convinced that tariffs are a shot in your own foot, and using them as he is will never make America great again. Prices will go up and the federal coffers will be full and the people’s pockets emptier.

@1490wayb That ship has long sailed with the BBB. More debt, but for the sake of giving tax breaks to the upper class lol

At least Biden/Harris were going to spend it for stuff that benefitted the 99.9% (e.g. infrastructure) and not just the 0.1%
