Trump could solve this but he’s a coward. I got downvoted last time I said this but I’ll repeat it, the tariffs were a good thing as they would absolutely destroy this consumerist culture we live in. The degrowth is a feature not a bug.
But Trump doesnt have the balls to do it and whatever neocon/neoliberal ends up in power next won’t do it either so I guess we’ll just drown in funko pops and cheap slave made clothing.
I don't think you're wrong de facto, and the intentions of the tariffs are certainly different from the results.
Not a Trump supporter btw, just skeptical of each and every neocon/neolib that sets foot near business regulations and PAC money.
