When during WWII? When was a wage increase prohibition? Are you on drugs? Nixon's price/wage freeze lasted 90 days. LOL. Do you think Trump would do that? He is doing everything to increase US wages you buffoon.
Of course Trump won’t I never implied he would. Look through history not just in the US and there are many examples of wage and price controls particularly in Banana Republics.
Tariffs are a way to control prices through market distortions.
