Old people are afraid of inflation and flat interest rates. Well the nation’s economic policies can’t just cater to the old. Tariffs cause inflation and THAT IS A GOOD AND DESIRED THING. WE WANT THAT. The tariff causes corporate greed to reverse bias in favor of the US worker. It is long over due.

Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon---Milton Friedman

They don't cause inflation, they raise the prices of some goods and people have less money to spend on other goods. That's not inflationary.
