It is interesting reading this from your perspective, @gadrian. You are one of the accounts whose content I still read. You seem thoughtful in what you have to say, as a general rule.

One aspect of these tariffs I do not see mentioned is a key word. Reciprocal. That word is being reported as the center of what President Trump says will be coming on April 2nd. The point?

Tariffs are already in place. I would suggest either an argument be made that is simply not true. Or an argument should be made as to why it is okay for other countries to have various tariffs against trade with the U.S., but not the other way around.
