Greedy multi-national corporations are salivating at thought of their profits from that type of world

Do you have any idea how boring this line is? Get used to the future, Ann. All Tariff walls can do is put us into a depression.

They are motivated by greed but that greed is good for the world. As Adam Smith noted the baker doesn't make his bread for people out of the goodness of his heart. The profit motive causes people to produce and also gets them to produce things for which there is a demand.
