All it is is posturing during discussions.

In the short term America and it's consumers actually benifit from this tariff. This tariff has solid support from both sides of the house and will be being used as a bargaining tool in the next round of discussions.

Separating Economic Facts From Fiction on the Trump Tax Cuts

Quote:
How much will I save this year?

A: Last year’s tax reform cut taxes for the vast majority of Americans.

Using IRS data, The Heritage Foundation found that average households in every congressional district will get a tax cut in 2018. Most Americans are already receiving their tax cut through lower employer withholding.

The average American can expect a $1,400 tax cut this year, and a family of four will get a $2,900 reduction.


Q: What does the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act mean for the economy?

A: Workers have been better off almost every year since America started its slow climb out of the Great Recession in 2009, but this year is different. Things aren’t just a bit better; we’re setting records.

This summer, manufacturing activity hit its highest level in 14 years, the economy is in the midst of the longest-running period of businesses adding new jobs, and wages are increase faster than they have since 2009, when we were first climbing out of the bottom of the Great Recession.

Many workers are benefiting twice from the tax cuts. First, by paying less in taxes, and second from higher wages generated by a faster-growing economy.

The Heritage Foundation recently calculated that, over the next decade, the typical American household will reap an additional $26,000 in take-home pay, thanks to the cuts and the economic growth they fuel.

For a family of four, the 10-year benefits are almost $45,000. That’s more than enough to buy a new car or to put a down payment on a house.

I'll be charitable because you obviously have no idea who the heritage foundation is, but they are a looney right wing org that basically gave trump his list of supreme court judges to pick from, mainly based on their opposition to abortion and tax.

That's propaganda not details.

Never heard of them, but it was all sourced in the article.

Do you have any sourced details?
