Trump's tariff plan starts with a lie and goes down hill from there.
Tariffs are a tax, plain and simple --- paid directly to the US government by US importers and manufacturers who are ultimately reimbursed by consumers (you and me).
Huge new tariffs amount to nothing more than a massive tax increase combined with huge price increases (aka a spike in inflation) --- a double hit to the economy.
Show me a country that has ever taxed it's way to greatness.
