Trump's tariffs are actually nothing more than a corporate tax increase.... The impact or end result of increased tariffs are no different than that of the end result (according to most of you here) of an increase corporate tax rate.
Talk about Two-Faced.
First Trump cuts off aid to millions of people around the world and doesn't lift a finger to keep them alive (341,700 are estimated to have died from Trump shutting down USAID, 230,700 are kids), , but now he realizes Palestinians are starving to death and wants to do something about. I am happy the Palestinians might get (he has only talked so far, but not done anything) the food they desperately need, but see the terrible hypocrisy of his decisions to keep some people alive (it makes him look good) while helping hundreds of thousands of other die.

Would a free market have prevented this from happening?I'm guessing the libertarian argument would be that the failings of state regulation was a contributing factor. Those failings stemming from the fact that the regulators were in bed (figuratively and literally) with those regulated. Whereas...
