- CameronNemo 5y agoThese aren't perma-tariffs meant to punish consumers. These tariffs would just take enough goods off of the ships so that essential goods can pass through. In 4-6 months, they could start phasing out. Maybe even sooner.

- lasagnaphil 5y agoThe real problem is that because of the dollar’s (still) hegemonic status as the world reserve currency, dollars will never be cheap enough for manufacturing jobs in the US to come back. Trump’s tariffs really can’t do anything about it.
