توضیحات
The tariff is back, and it will not hold still. In less than two years, a president taxed goods from nearly every country on earth, the Supreme Court struck those tariffs down, the government began refunding more than a hundred billion dollars, and new tariffs rose in their place under laws written as far back as 1930. Businesses, farmers, and foreign governments are planning around numbers that change by the week.None of this is new. Americans have fought over the tariff since 1789, when the first Congress took three months to agree on one. In the 1830s, the fight brought a state to the edge of secession. In 1930, it produced Smoot-Hawley. After the war, it built the trading system the world still runs on. Now it has returned as the central economic argument of our time.Tariffs and Trade Wars tells that story from the beginning, through the people who made the decisions and the people who paid for them. It explains in plain English what a tariff is, who really pays it, and how the power to set one moved from Congress to a single desk. It takes no side between parties, and it gives protectionists and free traders their strongest arguments.The rates will change again. This book is about the question underneath them: who gets to decide?Second edition, completely rewritten.
