He's talking about the European tariffs.  See, Tim is 100% Ok with Europe putting tariffs on our goods and feels we should not have any tariffs at all on anything. And when we add tariffs, and Europe increases theirs(which Tim says is bad) he blames the US for it. The only bad hombre in the tariff conversation is his home country. When others do it, he doesn't care.

Expect sales and job losses in Kentucky, Wisconsin and Napa Valley. This whole thing is a stupid disaster. We gain nothing. Except the government is collecting the tariffs. Effectively this is government income in the form of a tax. I'm usually for lower taxes and have some reservations about this situation, but saying we gain nothing isn't correct. It is income into the federal government, a reduction of deficit/debt.  It's essentially a foreign goods consumption tax. There's also an impact of bringing jobs to the US to save these tariffs on the part of foreign producers.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Real timschochet 6,435 Posted March 19 So unless Trump changes his mind again (always a possibility) the new age of tariffs begin April 2. We will be placing tariffs on every country on Earth. These new tariffs will not be like any this world has ever seen before; way bigger than Smoot- Hawley (formerly the largest in history.) We import 3.5 trillion dollars worth of goods every year; 100% of these will have a new tax. Most economists predict the effects will be catastrophic to our economy. Trump says it will be the start of a new golden age. He predicts large scale manufacturing will return to the USA. Most others doubt this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes there’s going to be all kinds of anecdotal stories about companies coming to the U.S. investment in the U.S. etc. But they won’t come close to making up for the cost of these tariffs. According to the vast majority of economists from all sides of the political spectrum, there will be far more jobs lost than gained and the rise in prices will be extremely painful.  Hope Im wrong since it appears we’re going through with this no matter what.
