In this age of protectionist madness, it's time for a Nobel Prize awarded to the great pioneers of modern trade theory.
My prediction:
Elhanan Helpman, Samuel Kortum and Marc Melitz
for their contributions to our understanding of international trade.

The US economy will slow sharply in 2025; tariffs & other US policy shifts dampen activity & fuel global uncertainty. Tariffs are raising prices, disrupting supply chains, eroding real incomes, & making it harder for businesses to plan. #PIIECharts

Excellent thread by a leading trade economist on what might be valid reasons for setting tariffs.
Spoiler alert: None of those reasons could justify raising US import tariffs.
Instead such a policy will harm (almost) everyone involved, especially US consumers.

I'm seeing a huge spike in interest in tariffs from people who normally don't work in the economics of international trade. Here are a few useful things to know about them. (1/14)

Bilateral TD's reflect comparative advantage and are not necessarily a problem. I have a TD with my barber because I buy haircuts from him and he doesn't buy lectures from me. TD's are NOT a ripoff of our country by other countries! That's dumb. Cheers. (14/14)
