I have no particular insight to add on these tariffs other than they're insane, insanely large, and are going to be devastating to the global economy — starting with the US economy, which will be ravaged early once supply chain stocks are exhausted.
Seeing some figures here claiming us receiving *only* a 10% tariff rate compared to the EU's 20% is a 'brexit benefit' is utterly laughable and entirely economically illiterate.

I'm against the tariffs but this gives a chance to point out that a lot of countries around the world have such large tariffs imposed and have for a while.
This might be an opportunity for people around the world to demand their governments reconsider their tariffs policies.
