In this episode of The Dr. Virga Podcast, I dive into the hot and often polarized topic of tariffs. We break down Trump’s proposed 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico, discuss the implications of weaponized tariffs, and explore the potential impact on consumers, businesses, and the economy. Are tariffs the villain they've been made out to be, or is there more to the story?

I also touch on how blanket tariffs can lead to unintended consequences, why incentivizing domestic production is a smarter strategy, and the importance of targeting specific industries. Plus, I share insights on the history of tariffs and why positive reinforcement could be the key to boosting the economy and supporting the middle class.
