Testimony: Alternatives to Tariffs to Boost US Competitiveness

[@RWmHII]

Great summary and excellent effort. But how will your policy help annex neighboring countries? How will it help annex circumpolar geography? Reduce unauthorized immigration? Will it pay for childcare ?The trarrif is a swiss army knife of policy tools, useful for achieving any goal of the willful executive.

we didnt have trarrifs under Bidden and prices doubled that excuse on doesnt work

[@erickanter]

Does not change the fact tariffs are inflationary.

[@karen2247]

There were tariffs under Biden. They were put in after Trump was elected for his first term. Prices also went up due to supply chain demands and labour shortages due to covid. They went up all over the world.

Tariffs would be more inflation on top of the inflation we have already had. Bad for consumers and bad for stocks.
