Tariffs Debate

Be it resolved, tariffs are terrific

The White House believes that the US has been a victim of a bilateral trade imbalance with its trading partners for far too long, creating a global economy where foreign businesses profit at the expense of American industry, and specifically it’s working class. It’s time for other countries to step up and pay for doing business with the US. Advocates of free trade and financial globalization are sounding the alarm. They believe Trump’s increased tariffs on Europe, Mexico, and specifically China will have a devastating effect on the economy and plunge the US into a recession.
