If you bother to think about it, a predictable consequence of shifting to a tariff-based tax code is to further bias the economy away from the manufacturing sector (which needs to import things to make things!) in favor of intangible software and financial services.

Big shift: China says its carbon market will start using absolute emissions caps (not just intensity targets) in select industries by 2027, with a nationwide ETS established by 2030.
A market slowdown in the pace of job gains, with 22K added in August, bringing the three month average to 29K. On a percentage basis have not seen job growth this slow outside of recessionary periods in more than sixty years.
Something to bear in mind when spending time on this site. Social media and polarization are... related. Nice graphic from @FinancialTimes.

Maybe instead of blaming statisticians, the Trump Admin. should look inside, at the self-harm generated by their deliberate negative supply shocks (tariffs & deportation).

Nice piece on the possibility of a coalition of the willing around heavy-industry carbon pricing, with quotes from my coauthor Catherine Wolfram, a leader in this conversation. Talk of a global carbon pricing scheme grows louder ahead of COP30 ft.com/content/21b868… via @FT
Unintended consequence of repealing the de minimis exception for tariffs: companies that already shipped a pre-paid item add on a C.O.D. (cash on delivery) charge for the tariff. If US consumers didn't know tariffs were a tax on them before, they do now

Today alone, the White House has claimed: -$8 trillion in new tariff revenue. -$4 trillion in net deficit reduction. -$5 trillion in new business investment. -Hundreds of thousands of jobs from these investments. -Record low gas prices. Each claim is completely, 100%, made-up.
They should have thought of that before they did these embarrassing (and illegal) policies.

This quote from the Trump admin about its pocket rescissions couldn’t be more brazen. Pocket rescissions are an illegal way to ignore the will of Congress — which they feel comfortable saying out loud directly to the press.
A vivid depiction of the collateral damage from the Trump Administration's reckless tariffs. My workers voted for Trump. Now they’re absorbing the impact. wapo.st/4nqyHx9
it should probably be a bigger story that most of the world has stopped shipping packages to the U.S. entirely because of Trump’s tariffs
