A 20% tariff plus a freeze in government spending and a huge marginal rate cut would solve all of our problems. Instead we hurl towards disaster when a solution is available.

There is no solution without getting rid of the debt based currency. Each dollar we use was created by a debt that comes with an attached interest that must be paid back with the original debt. Paying back this interest on top of the original debt would necessarily shrink the money supply if the debt wasn't constantly being rolled over as it matured and rolled over into ever increasing amounts to cover the interest. The attached interest makes it an exponential function that will by mathematical necessity eventually approach a vertical asymptote, ie. run away hyper-inflation.
