Schultz commented Jul 27, 2025If you reckon that 14.6% of China's total exports constitute a necessity, OK. Put the other way, of China's total exports, 85.4% do not go to the USA. That was 2024, before the tariff war.

Schultz commented Jul 27, 2025There is zero economics in what you wrote, despite throwing in some words known in economics. Price elasticity goes to a change in quantity as a result of a price change. That is just the first error. Price elasticity has nothing to do with "why ...

Schultz commented Jul 26, 2025Well, tariffs are a tax. A sales tax. And yes, they are added on to the price of the good. Somebody in the USA has to pay. Trump wanted Walmart to pay. Good luck with that. That it flows through to the price that US manufacturers need to make their ...
