Tarrifs, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
By Isaiah O’Connor
In today’s episode, I break down the new tariffs that started this spring—taxes on goods from Canada, Mexico, and China—meant to boost U.S. industry and jobs while trimming our trade gap. I look at what happened with steel tariffs a few years back: prices spiked, then dropped, and some American jobs came back. I cover how this could hit your business—short-term cost bumps or client boosts, longer-term growth or grind—and give you steps to stay ready, like spreading out suppliers or eating costs now, so you’re set no matter what comes.
