The GDR went out of business in 1990 and merged with the FRG.
On tariffs broadly, the goal isn't just protectionist's revenue. As Scott Bessent has noted, a well-structured tariff regime could generate $300 to 600 billion annually, roughly 12% of GDP. That alone wouldn't close a 6% deficit, but it would be a meaningful down payment. It's unconventional, yes. But in a system addicted to debt and allergic to discipline, it may be worth the experiment especially if paired with broader spending restraint and tax reform. Achieving that kind of revenue would likely require an average tariff of 1020% on total imports lower for allies like Mexico and Canada, moderate for most trading partners, and sharply higher for strategic rivals like China.

As of October 20, 2025, approximately 9 months into Donald Trump's second term, the U.S. has collected an estimated $240 to $260 billion in tariff revenue attributable to his administration's policies. This figure is derived from official Treasury and CBP data, adjusted for the sharp increases in tariff rates implemented since inauguration.

key phrase "well structured". Tarriffs shrink GDP, or don't add to it and bessent has admitted this. They are a tax and we know this.PAC-10-BEAR said:

President Trump has said a primary reason for all the investments - they're claiming $17 Trillion - new plants, drug reshoring, car manufacturing, expansion of plants, etc , is bc of the fulcrum of tariffs.
More farm bailouts. NYT:
"This may seem nonsensical, especially since Mr. Trump already shoveled at least $28 billion to farmers hurt by his first trade war in 2018. But it actually makes perfect sense. It's what happens when Mr. Trump's zero-sum philosophy of trade which is that there are always winners and losers, and he should get to choose the winners collides with Washington's sycophantic approach to agriculture, which ensures that farmers always win and taxpayers always lose. In the end, Mr. Trump's allies, including President Javier Milei of Argentina and the politically influential agricultural community, will get paid, and you will pay.l

Guess who has paid roughly 65% of those tariffs?
Take one guess.
