Dire predictions for the economy

Dire predictions being reported by CNBC for the economy because of Trump's Tariffs.   Put aside whether or not you dislike or disagree with Trump regarding his Tariffs if our Nation keeps going on as it is where we are on the negative end of trade I don't think it would be too long before we passed a tipping point where the United States could even threaten a trade war or impose tariffs as a measure to get tariffs down.  One only has to make a trip to any store that sells anything to Americans, other than food, and find just 10% of items that are Made in America.  Right now there is such a discrepancy, mostly with China, between products made here and other places that we have put ourselves at the mercy of others, many of whom don't like America.  

Politicians, our representatives, have got us in this position and it has been Democrats and Republicans that are responsible.  I'm sure many have benefited themselves greatly account of it.  I don't claim to be financially astute but I do believe when you put your health, wealth, or control in the hands of others it doesn't benefit you and prove beneficial for your future.  All we have to look at is the oil industry and what happens when our supply is controlled by nations, mostly hostile to the United States.   Maybe Trump's tariffs will hurt parts of the Nation temporarily but the real question is what looms in the future if we do nothing now?
