You repeat a false script. If you understood tariffs you would no they can not and do not prove any kind of "rip off" and iin fact if anything simply show one thing-when the US engages in trade, it imports natural resources it does not have. That is all it shows. What it does not show and you do not understand is that:
1-the imbalance itself is not a rip off-the US takes the natural resource, refines it, then resells it making profit=all the imbalance shows is that the US is profiting from the natural resources;
2-the money the US pays for the resources then circulates in the country of the natural resources and is placed in their banks;
3-tose foreign banks then lend that money at favourable interest rates to the US so that the US can expand its businesses and make even further profit;
4-in fact there is no rip off-take for example the oil the US gets from Canada-it gets it and way below market prices, then refines it and exports it all making a huge profit-if anything Canada should have not been selling that oil as cheaply as we have to the US-if anything we were lazy not diversifying our exports of that oil to other countries which do not demand below market prices-now thanks to Trump's false narrative, we will-we will reoroute our oil, gas, potash, lumber, all products Trump claims the US does not need and is ripping off the US t- Europe, China, South Korea, Japan, South America. Asia, Australia and new Zealand with no tariffs and much fairer exchange rates-this is now causing the US to be unable to export this oil and lose hundreds of millions proving Trump is a liar-the US needs these resources as the basis to make its profit.
You repeating an article as you have shows you have zero understanding of the actual tariff system with Canada, China, and many other nations and think posting the above passes as your expertise on a complex issue.
People like you have been told that the very tariffs you posted do NOT exist. Had you done your researxch you would know that. THEY DO NOT EXIST. In fact for the tariffs you quote to apply the US would first have to export to Canada a certain level of the products you listed to trigger those tariffs. Trump's regime signed a trade agreement with Canada whereby those tariffs do NOT kick in because Canada agreed to only apply them after the US would sell a certain level which they have never reached. We reset the level to be fair to the US in these sectors.
So you produce a page that repudiates the very claim you make all because you won't research the issue!
Is it any wonder for the last 3 months Trump lies to you and you parrot it back. Just yesterday he said your egg prices went down and you probably lapped it up. Stop swallowing it and go brush your teeth.
I myself can not conceive you are this unaware of US trade and tariffs and can only subjectively conclude you are someoneone posing as American who is engaging in Russian spam.
In fact, it’s the other way around. These numbers show a tariff war makes no sense.

A trade war between Canada and its largest trading partner has begun, with tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump now in effect.

The U.S. president sees international trade as a zero-sum game. The truth is more complicated, according to economists

The only countries that benefit from the script you have provided which is so transparently false are Russia and secondarily China. Even Magas are realizing the tariff war is a false script designed as a pretesense to enable a retail tax on American consumers and cause strock fluctuations for insiders to trade stocks knowing when their value will go from high to low and back up again.
