The object of Trump’s solar tariff wasn’t to create jobs. It was to keep solar energy from dethroning the wicked King Coal and Queen Oil just a little bit longer.

Anyone in or even casually observing the industry or national economy at large know a 30% tariff isn't going to reverse decades of unfavorable manufacturing policy. What this will do more effectively is reduce installations, a much more significant number of solar jobs.

Possible reduction of jobs for installers of solar panels. Definite increase in cost to consumers. There is a balance between cost and jobs, is this tariff necessary? Power company’s like anything that will negatively impact solar industries. Follow the money— utilities are happy

It’s not meant to create American jobs. It is meant to prop up the oil and coal industries. Oil and coal money, hop on the new bus or become inconsequential. Can you say “Kodak”?

He doesn't understand tariffs anymore than any other aspect of government or trade. This tariff hike was an accomodation for this gas and oil industry donors.

And no tariffs on GM products made in China. Nor are there tariffs on Volvo which was purchased and now manufactured in China. The only thing

US manufacturer's will meet all the solar panels needs of the world. Supply and demand. As demand rises, manufacturing will rise to meet the need.
