REPLY: These tariffs are, to a big extent, political in hopes of forcing change. Europe, for instance, is deep in Marxism with excessive tariffs in concept to guard jobs. Take agriculture. Europe has an Agriculture: 13.9%. Tariff on American agriculture in comparison with the USA at 5%. Then there are points the press doesn’t even talk about—the Non-Tariff Limitations (NTBs). The EU likes to make use of stringent NTBs (e.g., EU laws, US requirements), that are distinct from tariff charges. Regulate one thing like high quality. Since Europe has attacked its farmers utilizing local weather change, it might probably impose NTBs if crops are grown with the fertilizers they’ve outlawed.
I imagine Trump’s folks have taken my testimony earlier than the Home Methods & Means Committee as a result of they’ve advocated the 15% price I laid on the market. I defined that US producers go away due to taxation and regulation, not as a result of they need to pay somebody $10 an hour vs. $15. I defined that we couldn’t go to ZERO as a result of some international locations would tax an organization if it had been situated in a tax-free zone. I defined that 15% would convey again all the businesses that left, however there needs to be some assure that if the Democrats get again in, they don’t reverse the whole lot. Democrats love spending the cash of different folks. They’re indoctrinated into Marxism.
So that is way more complicated; all I can do is level out the right path. I do communicate with some folks on the crew, however we should take this realistically. Canada has tariffs even between its provinces, as if every had been its personal nation. It’s a actual mess. Many Canadians by no means knew about that. It’s over C$200 billion.
