あらすじ・解説
This document analyzes the economic impact of recent U.S. import tariffs, particularly those on steel, aluminum, and Chinese goods, implemented under various trade laws. The analysis highlights a strong consensus among economic researchers that these tariffs have had primarily negative consequences. They effectively act as taxes, mostly burdening U.S. importers and consumers with higher prices, which reduces household purchasing power. Key findings point to a decrease in U.S. real GDP, reduced investment due to policy uncertainty, and inefficient allocation of resources. While some domestic industries like steel saw limited protection, the overall economic effects are largely viewed as detrimental.
