re: Goldman Sachs says U.S. consumers stuck with higher prices even after SCOTUS tariff ruling

Why didn’t Biden’s Autopen and the Dems in control of congress the first 2 years under Biden’s Autopen release the files themselves?
Re the files, IDGAF - an act was now passed (by a republican Congress) to release them, so they should be released. Re Biden, probably trying to protect people / pedos / Is**l too; imo, 90%+ of both parties are liars and criminals with a few honest eggs who somehow managed to get elected.

The use of tariffs is not intended to reduce prices. It’s to reduce or eliminate income taxes.
Hopefully you don't really believe this.
Last I checked, we collect like 2-2.5T in income taxes and only import like 4.25T in foreign goods. If we tariff all imports at 100%+ to fill, (a) people will stop buying foreign shite, (b) foreign people will stop buying our shite, (c) the global economy will crumble (last example of trying this was 1929 - maybe not exact cause, but def. correlation to the G Depression), and (d) as a result the deficit would be even bigger than the 1.6-1.7T we have now (although we somehow added 2-3T in debt 12 months trailing, which is more than the alleged annual deficit) because you can't generate tariff revenue if no one imports anything.
TLDR: If DJT really means what he said, it won't work.

Once prices increase, they never go down.

Not in that way.
They pay in the form of lost opportunity.

Biden’s Autopen’s best that you included was a continuation of first Trump term especially the first 3 months of January of 2021 when Trump was still President. 2nd Trump’s initial month or months was also more of a continuation of Biden’s Autopen especially the first few weeks of January which included one of his 3.0s.
From April 2021 through June 2024 Biden’s Autopen had months at rates at or above Trump’s worst month so far that was fully under his Presidency and usually well above. There has been no other time period like in at least the 21st century.
