So he shouldn’t go pushing tariffs.
You’re right. All we need to do is drop our corporate and individual tax rates, cut regulations, ease repatriation of funds and, to add in Larry Kudlow’s last favorite, allow immediate expensing for business investment in order to get our economy cooking again.
Talking about tariffs is sadly delaying and confusing it all.
LOL...........it reminds me of the old story that’s been around a long time about the farmer taking his young, prize and pet mule to the Mule Trainer. The farmer asks the OLD grizzled mule trainer to be gentle with his pet and beloved mule. Mule trainer says “oh, I will, I will”. Then he turns around, picks up a two by four and hits the MULE right between the eyes with the board. Farmer screams...”I told you to be gentle, why did you do that”?. Farmer deadpans back “oh, I was just getting his attention”. Trump’s just getting EVERYONE’s attention too.
“Talking about tariffs is sadly delaying and confusing it all.”
Tariffs are part of the negotiations/distractions. Have you noticed that suddenly nearly everyone has accepted the wall? (”He’ll never build a wall. That’s just campaign talk”).
Trump has a plan. Let’s wait and see how this all turns out.
It's effectively the same dang thing.
How anyone can have a problem with an excise tax is beyond me. It encourages making it in the US, where we tax it for everything else already made here.
It is the Income tax that is the real problem.
