You don't need tariffs, you need taxes. The problem isn't that your economy isn't doing well, it's that too much of the wealth goes to the top and too little to lower and middle class. It's not normal that one man has more than 250 billion.

I may even argue that it is not normal that someone has more that one billion :)

What is 100 times 1 billion? 100 billion Now subtract that from the original and you get -99 billion.

100 times less is not 1/100th of the original.
