Prices are expected to rise further if the tariffs proposed last week by Mr,. Trump—25% on steel and 10% on aluminum—are implemented.

Tariff == Tax, paid by the ultimate customer: you.

This is a way to raise tax revenue to offset further tax cuts on earned income.

YES! Every cent raised by imposing import tariffs should be returned to We the People in the form of reduced income taxes.

Until supply catches up with demand.

Consumption based taxes, like a tariff, are the way to go now. All Neoconservative should be in favor of them and drop their knee jerk negative reaction to a tariff.
