...tariffs are a tax. Democrats are opposed because Trump is using them to make China and Mexico live up to their end of a bargain. Democrats say it is not working, but we can see that it is working vs mexico and believe that it will work vs china in the long run. Both will be in America's favor. That being said, let me go back to the opening line of this post. Tariffs are a tax. Can anyone name any other tax not supported whole heartedly by democrats? Why are they opposed to this one?

When you spend $1000. it will cost you $1,230.

Ummmm. that is 23%

SO, you are saying that 23 percent would become the national across the board tax rate?

Does that include state income taxes as well? And Local? And property? What about FICA taxes?


I understand the principle that is being illustrated but I don't think I want to have a national 23 percent sales tax on everything I spend. I would much prefer a flat rate national income tax that is LOW.

The same percentage should be applied to every tax filer no matter their income. Thatway eeveryone pays the same ratio and there is no being hammered just because you make more money than someone else..

This is jut my opinion.

Thanks! Very Happy
