1. I've heard the argument that tariffs will incentivize manufacturing to return to the US. To what degree is this true? Are there alternative methods that achieve similar things?
2. This article (https://www.economicforces.xyz/p/is-dollar-dominance-good-for-the) seems to claim that increased tariffs will reduce trade deficit, in turn reducing financial deficit, which avoids some issues of a Triffin Dilemma (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triffin_dilemma). To what degree is this true? Are there alternative methods to achieve a similar thing?
3. Are there other legitimate arguments for / against the tariffs that I've missed?
