Posted - 12/22/2024 : 02:17:11 Tariffs are intended to incentivize companies to relocate back to the US. In the short-term, consumers need to wait, not pay the higher prices that come along with tariffs.
I have a friend who works for a local company that assembles small parts that are sold through places like Tractor Supply. His company brought back one whole product line from China a few years back when tariffs were first applied to imports from China. Prices didn't go up on those parts in the process.
Everybody needs to do everything we can to drive prices back to something like pre-Obama levels, to get the US economy going again.
The POTUS-elect has said he wants to see a 50% reduction in energy prices. That should do a lot to reduce all prices, but only if consumers do not go out spending crazy like it's a 2-day sale at Walmart.

Our life savings have been devalued, and must be restored -- so improved purchasing power can drive the economy.

But, because of all these illegal's' that Binden let in - Trump will have a bigger jog to do. I'm afraid it's going to get ugly in some cities where they've literally teken over areas.
Funny though ... Trump beat a 'lady',, Democratic candidate 'twice'.
