39
- "input: n = 1\nany honest appraisal of a proposal's worth requires an examination of its goals and the likelihood of its accomplishing them. when it comes to donald trump's proposed tariffs, his stated aim is to recapture american jobs that have been lost to globalization. the logic goes that if imported goods become more expensive by virtue of an additional tariff, consumers will turn to domestic alternatives that suddenly become more price-competitive in relative terms. in a vacuum, the argument has a certain theoretical appeal. in practice, however, other nations can exact reciprocal injury by simply imposing their own tariffs, at the cost of jobs in the us's export-oriented industries. add in the unsavory reality that the input costs for an entire supply chain are artificially inflated because once-bargain-priced chinese parts enjoy a newfound premium with the end result that consumer demand is stifled, and yet another jobs peril looms. one need only revisit the fallout from trump's first-term trade war to empirically confirm these adverse consequences. according to an analysis by the tax foundation, trump's tariffs triggered a net loss of 166,000 jobs. meanwhile, the us-china business council placed the figure at nearly a quarter million lost jobs. rounding off this bleak picture, the federal reserve board reported a 1.4% decline in manufacturing employment. in other words, for all the talk of job creation, the reality is that tariffs succeed only in costing them. {guide: transition to talking about other way of looking at idea} [also have to look; beyond just whether accomplishea stated reason whether get that done; whether trade-offs associated with it worth it] ->",
