Trump wants to eliminate income tax, but replace it with tariffs on imported goods.

I see no good coming from the biden inflation

But raising tariffs on china has positive consequences

Biden’s inflation came from the massive spending that Trump and Biden both passed in addition to world wide supply chain disruptions which happened during both Trump and Biden’s terms. See there was this thing called a pandemic.

Excuses, excuses. the SCAM demic was nothing more than a biological attack by the Chinks. I would've retaliated utilizing a full scale nuclear strike.

Call it whatever you want that doesn’t change the economic effects that it had on the world. And the fact that Biden was nowhere near a position of power during the first two years of it

And yet the DEMOCRATS shut everything down and made us prisoners in our own homes, easier to control.

Ahh, well at least we found the issue. You’re confused and don’t know the subject, which is trumps idiotic plan with taxes and tariffs… not Dems

Both, actually. I want to see a return to the belching smokestacks and heavy industry.

Yes, or maybe they dont buy the new 72 inch tv and make do with the old 55 inch till the new factory in India or Vietnam gets started

But to replace income tax with tariffs, the new TV from India will have the same tariffs imposed.
Tariffs imposed on a very narrow kind of import because the originating country is dumping, or because you want to protect a new industry is OK. Tariffs on everything from everywhere is just nuts.

Washington IDIOTS already can't manage the money and they are blowing $7 trillion freaking dollars a year. Before we go mucking around with the income tax the real problem needs to be fixed.

We do have inflation. The entire world does thanks to CoVid. Do you want more with Trumps new tariff plan?

man-made disease in China launched and soread with American communist D helping. All to rid Trump whose policies were hurting China badly in 2019. Lest D forget.

Ho else can we expect manufacturing to return to the US? That should be the objective here.

Taxation is theft
1) No new entitlements
2) Cut spending everywhere

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

Such a thing can only be enacted by Congress, not the Executive. "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, ......"

A nice whistle for the Dog and Pony show.

And if Republicans control Congress ?

 

[dblack]

And if Republicans control Congress ?

You mean like the way they didn't repeal ACA when Republicans had control of the Congress and Trump was President? That's sort of what I'd expect.

But in this case, that's a good thing. Because it's a really dumb idea. I'm totally in favor of getting rid of income tax, but tariffs are even worse. Unless you're a smuggler.

 

[leftwinger]

How long does that take and what effects happen in the mean time?

It didnt take long undrer Trump in 2017. Quit saying nothing can be done. Your better than that. Trump had Steel opening up in Granite City Illinois for Christs sake.
