if you want to protect steel and aluminum jobs in the US there are other things you can do besides slapping tarrifs everywhere

tarrifs are just a brute force way to do it, and i would argue not the best

aluminium*

shush

you could subsidize the steel and aluminum companies, you couldalso offer tax breaks to companies that use amaerican made steel and aluminum

both of those ways would boost american steel and aluminum, not raise cost on steel and aluminum, and ot piss are allies off so much

our allies aren't very pissed.

o yeah, slapping tarrifs on countries doesnt upset anyone

It forces them to compete in different ways.

yeah, by putting tarrifs on american products

Yeah

and its almost like they target industries they can do without and disporotionatly hurt trump supports.

Depends in the market of the goods that have tariffs.

Time will tell.

Goes back to my point. Yes it helps a small.industry, but it hurts dozens of other industries which are a larger part of the us economy

My county is peeved with US trading, pulling out of the TPPA

They have counties in NZ?

I am sorry to tell you this Louis, but American manufactory jobs like we saw in the first half of the 1900s isn't coming back in any meaningful way. Physical factories may come back to the us but it will mostly be automated and very few jobs there.

Same with coal, the world has moved on

Eh

Coal powers most non nuclear power plants
