Short excerpt of a speech by U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer arguing for reciprocal tariffs: treating foreign countries the way they treat U.S. companies. Greer frames reciprocity as a "golden rule" for a new era, and notes that countries with long-standing high tariffs or discriminatory practices will face higher reciprocal rates to achieve parity.

First of all, we're doing a reciprocal tariff, right? This is a golden rule for the golden age. We treat them how they treat us. As Stephen mentioned, we expect that those countries that treat us very poorly, where they have documented behavior over many years of whether it's high tariff levels or extreme trade barriers or taxes or other kind of charges that discriminate against our companies or burden our companies, they are naturally going to have higher rates, because to achieve the kind of reciprocity we need, you have to have a higher rate.
