Trump to Impose Tariffs

Trump said his administration would impose a 25% tariff on steel imports and a 10% tariff on aluminum. It was not immediately clear whether Trump would exempt some countries from the tariffs, as his national security advisers have urged him to do to avoid hurting U.S. allies. The big problem is that Trump FAILS to understand how the economy truly functions. Imposing tariffs on foreign imports because they can produce something more efficiently is NOT protecting American jobs – its is imposing higher costs on the American public. If America cannot compete against foreign steel and aluminum, the answer is not tariffs, but TAX REFORM and UNION REFORM. If unions fail to understand that demanding higher wages in an uncompetitive manner will only lead to the loss of jobs, then end result cannot be prevented by tariffs.

Hi GZ,

Absolutely agree with you.

Now making steel is considered a dirty job.

There fore the progressives have quietly pulled the rug out from under all the steel workers in the USA (some 21,000 as of 2014.

Since deflation is such a big problem in our economy, I say let's make steel the clean and environmentally safe way.

Yes it will cost more.

Steel made any where else that does not utilize the cleanest methods of production should be outlawed by the WTO.

This would reinforce our countries self reliance and set a higher standard of global environmentalism.

The days of progressives turning their back on sectors of industries that are not clean and ushering them off to other parts of our globe need to be disclosed as environmental crimes to our world.

So much for deflationary influences!

Bob

You bring up some very valid points, GZ:)

Maybe there'll be some more media fear-mongering re: trade wars this weekend to shake out the last of the weak hands, but it should be over by next week.

Ok, will be getting ready for a
