It shifts production to other countries, the demand is still there. And yes, tariffs can attach at times.

I think some billionaires live on their yachts in the Med. They certainly have enormous yachts. Maybe they establish residency in Monaco. Monaco is "weird", to me, it's somewhat akin to the UAE and Qatar.

so, you're not in favor of tariffs?

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!

A lower income person in CA will use the standard deduction, they won't pay enough SALT to merit itemizing.

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%

Depends on the imbalance.

Not if there is a trade imbalance.

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.

What about billionaires with no employees?

N/A then?

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