I'm pro tariff . Especially at the stage we are at since NAFTA. I think Milton Friedmans take on tariffs was probably the stupidest thing he ever said ( although I do see where he was coming from.)
That said , I highly doubt this guy is correct. He might be correct on a few items but I dobut he's right over all.
That said , the tariff is still worth doing 100%. Especially if it leads to tax cuts and dosent get shut down in 4 years. The tariffs will help the economy way more than hurt it.
One of the problems I see with libitarians like myself is they just can't compute the fact that the Austrians may be wrong on some things. It just shatters all their fundamental beliefs. It really fucked up and culty.
They can't seem to see there's a difference between the tariffs the civil war was fought over and what's being proposed. It's an either or to them.
The problem with the tariffs in the antibellum was they were specifically designed to hurt the south.
It was completely fucked.
