God, this stupid tariff thing again. All tariffs are going to do is raise costs, so we'll go back to inflation being insane.

I think you might be in agreement with the parent. Increased costs (due to tariffs) will reduce consumption and therefore emissions.

It will just make solar more expensive and increase the attractiveness of US oil and gas to the US electorate further entrenching Trumpism.

We currently have a lot of tariffs. Should we remove all of them, some of them, or do we have exactly the correct amount?

And if the economy starts to turn (or maybe even if it doesn’t) say good by to the relatively apolitical Fed and rate-setting. Which’ll bring a boom, more inflation, and a hard crash on the other side.

Or maybe people stop buying crap they cannot afford

If we ship all our jobs overseas we can increase profits significantly. The poor and middle class will suffer in our country, and so will our economy.
