Think about this. In about 6 1/2 hours the USA will start to collect an additional $30 billion in revenue. Now, have you ever seen the USA gov once it gets an additional revenue stream just end that revenue stream? Hell, we have taxes from the civil war still on the books.
The longer the tariffs are in place and the more the USA government gets familiar with that revenue the less likely they will be reversed. Add to that as the tariffs start to bite companies will start to make very important decisions on investment and locations.
Here too, the length of time is important. The longer the tariffs are in place the more companies will be forced due to competition to relocate their plants out of China. Once that happens, the very same people currently lobbying for no tariffs will be lobbying for tariffs in...
......years to come as their profit centers change. We are talking about a sea change in the way the entire population thinks. One final addition to this train of thought. The longer the tariffs are in place the more jobs will be created in the USA. These jobs...
...will be held mostly my US citizens who vote. Many of whom, as well as their parents, have already been sold a bill of goods with the NAFTA and WTO false talking points. These voters will not be so quick to fall for the false promises of "free trade" in the coming years.
This will create a powerful voting block on Main Street much like the old time unions without union leaders. The politicians currently funded by Wall Street will seriously think twice about going against this voting block. In fact, many will abandon the false sirens of Wall
...Street and instead embrace this voting block as their ticket to gain and keep power. Thus, these tariffs, the longer they are in force, will create waves of real lasting change that will continue for decades.

We are truly looking at a fundamental change for our country.
