I meant "this one" in abstract, not the one in the article. Ie you can easily link an item in a shop to a clause in your policy and an amount that has been paid

I meant "this one" in abstract, not the one in the article. Ie you can easily link an item in a shop to a clause in your policy and an amount that has been paid. There is no way to understand that implications so simply with (eg) quotas.
- imgabe 8y agoSure, if you want to make an abstract, general statement about how tariffs, as a concept have certain advantages, ok. I don't see how that's relevant to the specific disadvantages the article is pointing out about this tariff in particular.
- dalbasal 8y agoIt's not. It's a point about tariffs in general.
- scroogly 8y agoI'd say this view comes from massively underestimating the complexity of the effects on the economy that result from the externalities of instituting tariffs.
