[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Trump has already said he was willing to give govt subsidies to American farmers hurt by the tariffs. We’ll see if he keeps his word. But either way, the cost to the American taxpayers of his poorly thought out tariffs keeps increasing.[/quote] So: Lose - Lose for consumers. First our tax dollars are being used for subsidies that wouldn’t be necessary without Trump’s tariffs, and then again when prices of both domestic and imported products go up. I can’t do the calculations myself, but it would be interesting to better understand the impacts of unnecessary subsidies. Something like: Are the subsidies for soybeans enough to fund all of the Head Start programs in America? [/quote]
