Replying to Avatar Bill Cypher

Why is the burden of proof on the people who want the action not to be taken? Shouldn't the burden of proof be on those who want to take action that their action is a benefit?

Setting a sane burden of proof let's start over.

Explain to me how an economically unproductive entity getting a 10% (I know the proposed tariffs vary I just picked a number) cut of the value created by 2 economically productive entities in exchange for nothing in return benefits anyone other than the unproductive entity getting free money?

I agree with you.

I never intended to take the position that tariffs are a good thing.

I’m 100% behind the notion that government should be small and have limited power.

I still stand behind my initial assertion though that economists are only making their best guess on what’s going to happen because it’s not a science.
