I'm fine with tariffs, if they are mutual.

Fairness is a good thing.

I think everyone should be a billionaire.  Except people who put beans in their chili

Bean-fascist!

SALT deductions are relief to people who voted for stupid state and local policies at the expense of those of us in other states - some might call that taxation without representation. 

How about the people in high tax states stop voting for stupid things?  SALT deductions need to be eliminated permanently. 
I agree.

if they are mutual, ..... why have them

25% to 25% is the same as 0% to 0%

My wife's opinion is that billionaires can absolutely exist, but she thinks that there should be a rule that you can only make at most 10 million times what your lowest paid employee makes.

N/A then?

While I am sure that at least one of those exists, I suspect it is pretty rare.

Well, you would technically be self-employed, so 10,000,000 X 1.
