Let’s talk about the:
Smoot–Hawley Tariff Act
If you’d rather learn by listening this one was pretty good: Marketplace Smoot-Hawley
Let’s now see how Smoot-Hawley made it possible for #45 to easily enact his we may campaign promises. Will those promises lead to a trade war? Could these targeted tariffs lead to our next global crisis.
Do the new tariffs hurt #45s base?
It will be interesting to see what new FTZ’s will be created to circumvent the latest tariffs.
After picking up my imported light bulbs at the auto parts store yesterday and hearing the manager say he doesn’t trust the news, I figured it was time to pull from history to see if state of tariffs needed to be reviewed.
Cheers from sunny Pittsburgh, where our manufacturing took a giant leap because of WWII.
