    Trump Using Tariffs to Pay for His Corporate Tax Cuts?

    Trump's failure to reduce the US trade deficit has actually produced an increase of 7.9% over the previous year at the same time his tax giveaway to his 1% base has increased the budget deficit. How could tariffs partially solve that problem, and who would pay? Trump's New Tariffs on China...

    Tariffs

    Is it possible that these tariffs the Pres wants are to build up reserves in the Treasury so he can give himself another tax break? I only said is it possible giving all of his self-dealing we already know about.

    The Champion Of Freer Trade

    Love him or hate him, you’ve got to hand it to Donald Trump. His trade and tariff strategy — risky as it is — seems to be working. The master negotiator is hammering out agreements — first with the Europeans and now with Mexico, much to the chagrin of his opponents — that are better deals for...

    Shouldn't Republicans give money to every company affected by Trump's Tariffs? It's only fair.

    Layoffs from Trump tariffs are piling up. So are calls for more bailouts. Extending those bailouts would be an expensive proposition. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Monday estimated the total price tag could hit $39 billion if Trump compensated the losses across all industries. Nearly 29,000...

    Western Democracies taking a page from Trump's Russian Friends by working to affect US Elections.

    Trump is threatening or passing tariffs on foreign products. Not on Russia or other Authoritarian regimes, but on America's traditional allies, Western Democracies. So our former allies have decided to fight back. Clearly, they have decided the best way is to affect America's next election...

    Do USMB Republicans feel it's OK for the Trump family to profit BIGLEY from US Government policy?

    We know that Qatar was punished for not giving Jared Kushner money to help his property 666. We know that once China gave a half billion for a Trump resort/golf course in Indonesia, Trump walked back tariffs. We know that favors were given out just before Ivanka received trademarks in China...

    Comparison of Import Certificates and Tariffs

    Comparison of Import Certificates and Tariffs: I'm among the proponents of the Wikipedia's described version of an “Import Certificates”. The policy's entire net costs are passed on to USA purchasers and users of imported goods which similarly can be done with a tariff policy. Unlike tariffs...

    President Trump Wins "Trade War" with China?

    It would appear so. Raised tariffs on Chinese products seems to be having the desired effect. Seems they are drastically reducing tariffs on US goods going to China. They're still playing it coy but the US stock market has improved because of it. The Chinese Just Announced Decreased Tariffs And...
