    US and Israel attack Iran

    Have not found one yet most seem to be in agreement that tariffs are passed on to the consumer much like higher corporate taxes. I tried to find some ways or categories where tariffs have impacted Americans. From Forbes: American consumers bore 90% of last year's nearly six-fold tariff...

    I tried to look his record and find out more about him, I did not find anything that indicated lack of respect etc. Admittedly I did not take a deep dive into his background. Only thing I have found is he co-authored a book that was about 15 years off from being correct. I took your initial...
