CNN - They’re effectively a tax on imported goods — clothes, shoes, toys, car parts, appliances, you name it. But the extra money does not come from the foreign companies that produce those goods. The American company doing the importing pays the money to the US Treasury. And more often than not, that means you, the consumer, pay for the tariff. This isn’t speculation or theory, it’s just the way tariffs work.
Trump wrongly claims [it is the evil] foreign entities who would pay for the added costs of Trump tariffs. The most generous interpretation of Trump’s tariff plan would be that he’s trying to force US businesses to move their overseas operations back on US soil, creating jobs. But you don’t need an MBA or an econ degree to know that US labor is expensive, and THAT would drive prices higher! [inflation!]

It'll be interesting to see what Biden does in his last couple of months. The damage he did will take a while to clean up, then correct. Let's hope he's finished.

Maybe a pardon for Hunter might be the only noteworthy thing left for him. Other than that, I think he looks forward to his weekend trips back to Delaware to play cribbage w/ his other old, senile friends. That's what he has on the docket from Monday-Friday.

HEADLINES today . . . London CNN — Inflation is likely to rise in the US and around the world if newly elected US President Donald Trump follows through on his campaign promises to cut taxes, crack down on immigration and hike large tariffs on all imported goods.
Trump’s proposed economic policies — including deporting immigrants, across-the-board tariffs and increased political influence on the Fed — would, if fully implemented, “likely lead to a substantial decrease” in US economic output and “a large increase in inflation,” said Antonio Fatás, an economics professor at INSEAD, a business school headquartered in France.

Although the national debt was expected to increase significantly no matter who won the White House, the impact is viewed as potentially much larger under Trump. The president-elect has proposed fully extending the 2017 tax cuts and has floated cutting the corporate tax rate to 15% as well as a laundry list of other tax breaks.
Trump’s plans would add $7.75 trillion to the national debt over a decade, compared with $3.95 trillion under his opponent Vice President Kamala Harris, according to estimates from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.
Nearly two-thirds (65%) of economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal recently said deficits would be higher under Trump than Harris.
“The lack of fiscal discipline is a concern,” Jeff Buchbinder, chief equity strategist at LPL Financial, wrote in a report Monday

Musk and Ramaswamy propose propose spending cuts that have resulted in economic calamity in other countries. For example, Argentina austerity lead to higher unemployment and poverty. History has lessons on how to reduce budget deficits. Best way is to combine tax increases and spending cuts. However tax increases work better than spending cuts. Eliminating entire departments is politically hard and requires congress to pass laws. Also risk of downsizing not really saving money because functions are still necessary. Since benefits of some regulations outweigh costs, deregulation could make country worse off. Best way to reduce spending is to mandate a percentage cut in all departments instead of eliminating departments. 10% cut in big department is more significant than 100% cut in small department. Of course, least painful way to reduce deficits is through economic growth.
