On Tuesday, Breitbart reported that President Biden has stated that he will veto a bipartisan plan that would reverse his tariff waivers on China-made solar panels.

The article reports:

In June 2022, Biden announced a 24-month tariff moratorium on solar panel imports from Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia. Commerce Department officials suspect that the solar panels are actually made in China but have been routed through the four southeast Asian nations to avoid U.S. tariffs on China-made solar panels.

The suspension of tariffs came even as Biden’s Commerce Department found that BYD Hong Kong rerouted its production through Cambodia, Canadian Solar, and Trina through Thailand, and Vina Solar through Vietnam for the sole purpose of avoiding the tariffs.

This month, House Republicans, as well as Rep. Terri Sewell (D-AL) on the House Ways and Means Committee, voted to pass a resolution that would reverse Biden’s tariffs waivers. The resolution is expected to go to the House floor in the coming weeks.

The article concludes:

While skyrocketing U.S. trade deficits have led to devastation across America’s working- and middle-class communities over the last two decades, tariffs would be a boon for reshoring jobs and boosting wages, studies show.

A study from economists at the Coalition for a Prosperous America finds that tariffs on nearly all foreign imports would create about ten million American jobs while boosting domestic output.

One of the problems with the Biden administration’s rapid push toward green energy is that America at the moment does not have the manufacturing capacity to fuel that drive. America’s green energy is made in China and has been a boon to the Chinese economy–not the American economy. Aside from the fact that climate change is not ‘proven science’ (there is no such thing as proven science), the technology of green energy is simply not advanced enough to support the American way of life. I am not convinced all Americans are willing to accept a lower standard of living in the name of climate change. I myself am not particularly excited about the prospect of eating insects instead of steak. I am also convinced that those making the rules will not be the ones eating insects instead of steak.

Unfortunately, the threatened veto of the reversal of the tariff waivers simply fuels the suspicion that the financial and political fortunes of President Biden and his family are tied to the success of the Chinese economy.
