I don’t think a lot of people see this but tariffs are the ultimate move in a decades long effort to push the tax burden away from the rich and onto the backs of the working and middle classes. The far right doesn’t like what borrowing has done to the national debt but we have to borrow if the rich won’t pay their fair share. The rich never spend all of their money, having big reserves is the definition of being rich. They certainly don’t want to pay more taxes and in an effort to restrain government borrowing, they’ll slap tariffs on imports. It’s a regressive value added tax that will retard economic development.
