Tariffs not 'sustainable'

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

41% : Trump placed import taxes of 145% on China, which countered with 125% tariffs on U.S. goods.
33% : But Trump shows no public indications that he plans to pull back his baseline 10% tariff, even as he insists he's looking for other nations to cut their own import taxes and remove any non-tariff barriers that the administration says have hindered exports from the U.S. China warned other countries Monday against making trade deals with the United States that could negatively impact China.
30% : Trump placed tariffs on several dozen countries, causing the stock market to tumble and interest rates to increase on U.S. debt as investors worry about slower economic growth and higher inflationary pressures.
