What I don't understand is why they decided to apply these tariffs to food (necessities of life) instead of taking a more targeted approach, taxing products considered non-necessities. It seems paradoxical to retaliate against the US by starving/making the lives of their own population even more challenging, and all without an aid package to help those who will be hit the hardest. If someone can explain the rational, I'd greatly appreciate it. Let's survive first and then talk about what we want to handle the bully down south.
