Tariffs will be mostly fine. A lot of tech manufacturing is moving out of China, anyways. We moved on from Japan to China in the 90's when Japan became too expensive.

see the google search surge of 'tarriffs'
these morons don't understand anything they voted for
i just wonder how many are capable of breaking their programming ( on either side it looks like no one can )

If there was only something you could do to boost demand to balance out a cut in spending…

I don't think we'll ever enter into a depression since there are many, many programs both public and private that will aid folks most susceptible to economic harm. But I see a world where the United States is getting more vulnerable to competition as we spend less on ourselves and end up in a longer stagflation.

New Deal increased spending to get us out of the Great Depression.

Are you implying that by reducing government spending we’ll enter a New Great Depression?

vast majority of the federal budget can only be changed by an act of congress

Privileged take, but I felt like the economy was healing quite a bit and the Fed had achieved a lot of its goals with inflation.

it's pretty complex, and most debates focus on the most wasteful forms of govt spending

but no way around the reality that they're spending tax dollars, or printing more money and causing more inflation

& difficult these days to tell the avg american that your money's better off in the hands of the government
