| Rosicrucian1 User ID: 77804393  Canada08/01/2019 02:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | President Donald Trump said Thursday the U.S. is putting an additional 10% tariff on the remaining $300 billion worth of Chinese goods, effective September 1. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69421888 Trade talks are continuing, and during the talks the U.S. will start, on September 1st, putting a small additional Tariff of 10% on the remaining 300 Billion Dollars of goods and products coming from China into our Country...We look forward to continuing our positive dialogue with China on a comprehensive Trade Deal, and feel that the future between our two countries will be a very bright one!” Trump said in a tweet on Thursday. The trade battle between the world’s two largest economies has dragged on for more than a year and a half. Trump shocked the markets in May by hiking tariffs to 25% from 10% on $250 billion in Chinese goods. China immediately retaliated and said a trade deal will not be reached unless the existing duties were stripped.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 77855138  Slovenia08/01/2019 02:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tariffs are taxes. So trump really is a tax and spend liberal. Just take a look at the deficits the last 2 years. Quoting: NDFarm Trump's tariff hike will cost households more than $800 per year, study finds After Washington said Beijing reversed on previous trade commitments last week, Trump hiked the tariff rate on $200 billion worth of Chinese imports to 25% from 10%. The increase will cost the average household $831 per year, economists at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Columbia, and Princeton said Thursday. Domestic prices at the border have risen one‑for-one with the tariffs last year, according to the New York Fed. But the steeper tariff rate is expected to lead more companies to switch suppliers, meaning the government would bring in less revenue from tariffs even as costs to Americans jump.

I bet you even think he was lying when he said the wall would be paid for by Mexico. |
