I'm all for tariffs, but... Reduce by a 1/4? That is also idiotic. General tariffs are bullshit. Tariffs can and should be used, but in a surgical way. Full blast globalism allows nations like China to dump with the objective of killing other countries sectors. Also, they should be decided by political consensus, in a long term strategy, and supplemented with incentives, to allow local reindustrialization to happen.
