Why wait? Stop placing tariffs, tax and trade restrictions on our imports and grow wealthier. You’d understand that if you’d read the article and realize you’re being duped by protectionists.
Why would we punish our consumers thinking we’re getting back at countries that punish theirs?
Explain how forcing consumers to pay higher prices for products they want is good for them. Aren’t consumers part of “everyone?”
If you would bother to educate yourself beyond the political talking points that you’ve been fed you’d learn there is no overall gain from tariffs.
Depends but I mostly agree, which is why foreign countries need to eliminate their tariffs on US goods/services or face US tariffs.
Your error, as best as I can make out, is you regard tariffs and threats of tariffs as a political big stick to show another country your dick is bigger than his. But there are some big sticks which have a deleterious effect on your own country, harming as many or more than they help. Tariffs are such an animal. The main victims of tariffs are the people in the country enforcing them. If a country other than yours imposes tariffs on its imports, that's their mistake, and it is unreasonable to think the "cure" is to harm your own citizens in return. The argument against the application of tariffs is an economic argument. You don't seem to be able to grasp that fact. You are too consumed to prove you have the bigger dick.
Even you Dan have to admit yer impressed with Donald's "big dick". Deny all you want. Sweet dreams Dan. 👍
So if I understand your logic it goes like this: since a foreign country’s government imposes tariffs on a product exported by someone from your country, making his product more expensive to those foreign citizens, then logic demands your country’s government impose tariffs on products made by someone from that foreign country, making his products more expensive to you.
