I don't agree with either, tbh. I don't support the latest tweet because I don't believe America needs to "lead the world" in EVs or solar panels, it's American exceptionalist nonsense.
Also, tariffs don't necessarily mean American people pay for it. China doesn't pay for tariffs, obviously. They can sell to other countries or for domestic use instead if Americans don't wish to import their goods.
If the tariffs are imposed along with an increased state role in domestic production of EVs and solar panels, with proper planning like China did, the U.S. could achieve domestic production of the same quality in long run.
But in reality, there won't be any proper planning. The U.S. government is incompetent. So, you'll end up having inferior, overpriced cars.
Wheres the tarrifs on things that are killing us, Joe? Where's the carbon tax?
I dunno look at the magnificent success of forgiving student debt 15 dollar minimum wage and BUILD BACK BETTER
