  • Economists are saying

    From JAB@21:1/5 to All on Sun Aug 18 18:35:57 2024
    Fox host: Economists are saying Trump's plan to exact tariffs on
    things like gas, clothing, and other basic goods will drive up prices
    for Americans

    Vance: Well, Shannon, I don't buy that https://x.com/KamalaHQ/status/1825231970596454735

    Of course it drives up prices....

    You might not believe it, but I agree with you here 100%. Tariffs is one
    of Trumps, very rare, stupid ideas, and will drive up prices. This has
    been proven many times by modern economic science, just like modern
    economic science has disproven socialism (no price-mechanism is one of
    the reasons why socialism will always fail).

    I do have to say I find it spooky when we agree about things, don't you
    think? ;)

    I endorse realistic assessments...
