I’d also go for the immediate imposition of a 25% tariff surcharge on imports from China.
Right. Drive us all into poverty in no time flat.
Look, I really don’t have the time to explain concepts such a “zero elasticity” and the legalities of our WTO legal obligations, but rest assured that even if China didn’t reciprocate - and it would - and the WTO didn’t slap a huge tariff on everything made in America - which it would - and the consumers who but all of this stuff actually didn’t buy it anymore - which they will - then you could make that Tariff a 100% and not 1 job would return to this country under the present (1970 to now) legal, regulatory, and labor environment.
Not one.
Declare and find China guilty of currency manipulation and the WTO allows tariffs for dealing with that.
No one can argue that a currency peg isn’t currency manipulation. Especially when so many have complained to China about said peg.
