Tariffs drive investment in our own country. Locally made products are what we're after. If you want to lower inflation, you dial back government spending. One of the ways inflation happens is when the money supply grows too large relative to the economy. That's what happened under the last administration.

@carpediem If I want to buy maple syrup from Canada, Volvo from Sweden, Crystal from France you bet that will be much more expensive in the future if those countries have to pay tariffs to USA! @BizSuitStacy

@Carazaa We live in a world where manufacturing capacity is critical to national security. US leaders have foolishly outsourced manufacturing all over the world to the detriment of our middle class. Tariffs, along with competitive taxes, will bring manufacturing back to the US.
Increasing energy supplies will start the cycle to lower costs across the board. Tax reform will drive growth. Reducing government spending reigns in inflation. There's more to this than the price of Maple Syrup. We won't be making enemies. The world is a rough and tumble place and tariffs are part of the game. Economic dominance is one area where we can make a huge difference in the world without firing a shot.

@BizSuitStacy I hope you are right but I'm afraid you are wrong. Lets see if gas, goods, and groceries increase before you jump to conclusion about that.

@Carazaa when Trump slapped a 25% tariff on China during his first term, how much inflation did the US experience?

@Carazaa As has been pointed out many times those companies that the USA is importing goods from won't pay any tariffs. The tariffs are paid by the importer, raising their costs which will be added to their selling price and the end user, eg the American consumers, will pick up that cost increase.

@carpediem It was blocked by republicans in February 2024
BBC News
President Joe Biden and Donald Trump are trading blame for the stalling of a bipartisan immigration bill.
The measure has already been rejected by House Republicans and is facing mounting Senate opposition.
Mr Biden said in a White House speech that his predecessor would "rather weaponise this issue" than solve it.
Mr Trump's campaign said Biden policies were "causing death, destruction, and chaos in every American community".
Supporters - including Democrats and Republicans in Congress - argue that the 370-page bill would stem the record-setting pace of undocumented immigrants at the southern US border.

@Carazaa You ditz. Millions of illegals came in prior to 2/24. The bill that you refer to, normalized an incredible number of illegals. It was a terrible bill that apparently you know NOTHING about. Thank God the republicans shot that POS down.
What else you got to try and justify the Biden administration’s nonsense? Anything new? Or just the same old leftist talking points?
Guess what? The voters saw through all that BS and elected Trump. Might as well accept it. Whining isn’t very attractive

@carpediem
So you are resorting to name calling? I wonder where you got that from? Are you reading the Bible daily? Have you trusted in Jesus?
Try to debate in an intelligent way rather than name calling. Because name calling is not intelligent debating, nor loving.
You know Jesus wants us to always be loving! The Golden Rule
"Treat others the way you want to be treated"
Jesus said in the last days, there will be deception and cold hearts.
The hallmark of a Godly person is Love
