wouldnt the US imposing tall these tariffs actually cause the US to have to rely on producing their own goods?  ...and is that a bad thing?

Unemployment is already low so all that happens is prices go up. I think?

paradoxically, it isn't. official unemployment figure is 3.6% which is historically low, but wage growth is below the rate of inflation, which isn't possible if there's actual competition for employees.

its risky going into production since its no guaranty that the tariffs are permanent and companies can't find a way around them.

Everytime someone tells me Trump won't succeed in something, I wait and see.
