The Tax Foundation analysis generally agrees with the Yale study above:
quote:
The price level from all 2025 tariffs rises by 2.3% in the short-run, the equivalent of an average per household consumer loss of $3,800 in 2024$. Annual losses for households at the bottom of the income distribution are $1,700.
quote:
US real GDP growth is -0.5pp lower in 2025 from the April 2nd announcement and -0.9pp lower from all 2025 tariffs. In the long-run, the US economy is persistently -0.4 and -0.6% smaller respectively, the equivalent of $100 billion and $180 billion annually in 2024$.
The Tax Foundation analysis generally agrees with the Yale study above:
quote:
The newly announced tariffs on April 2 will raise $1.8 trillion in revenue over the next decade and shrink US GDP by 0.5 percent. The April 2 escalation comes in addition to previously announced tariffs, which will raise $1.3 in revenue over the next decade and shrink US GDP by 0.3 percent. Altogether, Trump’s tariffs will raise nearly $3.2 trillion in revenue over the next decade and reduce US GDP by 0.8 percent.
The tariffs will reduce after-tax income by an average of 2.1 percent and amount to an average tax increase of more than $2,100 per US household in 2025.

So a model huh.
Is that like the 9 billion death Covid prediction model? You know, the models used to support lockdowns.

Are they permanent? Asking for an Alaska idiot.

I'd like to see this math.

Where were these ppl when Biden was handing out tens of millions of dollars every week to Ukraine?

So if they aren’t permanent how are we bringing manufacturing back to the US? We doing both now?

If models accurately saw into the future big money companies would never go out of business.
Enron had a lot of models.

One thing is for sure. It will absolutely amount to a tax increase.

The tariffs are ultimately a negotiation tool no?

I'd still like to see the math. Something seems fricky in those posted numbers.
Posted on 4/3/25 at 3:48 pm to David_DJS
I'm skeptical of the numbers also. One thing is for sure though. There are a lot more finance bros that think this is a shite sandwich than a good idea.
I'm not a betting man but I don't like relying on the idea that Trump is right and pretty much everyone else is wrong.

And according to all of those Al Gore approved climate models, the world should’ve ended by 2012. The models simply spit out exactly what the programmers tell it to.
Posted on 4/3/25 at 3:48 pm to Jbird
So if that’s the case, we aren’t bringing manufacturing back to America then because if all tariffs go to zero we will just buy cheaper shite from foreign countries. Right?
Posted on 4/3/25 at 3:51 pm to Boss
Perhaps. But cheaper is good right? Competition allows our products a fight chance.

That's one theory. There are 2 main ones that Trump's fans vacillate to depending on the discussion.
The other is that they're going to bring back domestic manufacturing.

How much would our deficit go up in that same time frame? $8000 per household?
Eventually that chicken comes home to roost.
