Now, nearly all imports face a 10 percent import tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The president threatened to slap additional tariffs on nations that do not yank digital taxes, saying Monday night that they are harming technology from the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDigital Taxes, Digital Services Legislation, and Digital Markets Regulations are all designed to harm, or discriminate against, American Technology,\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A large majority of respondents, 7 in 10, said they are working harder this year than in 2024, according to the survey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>About 40 percent of respondents said they are concerned that AI will take their jobs, the poll found. A survey from Reuters\/Ipsos, published earlier this month, found that 71 percent of Americans are worried improvements in AI will cause permanent job losses for a large number of employees in the U.S.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Respondents in the WalletHub survey have also said the job market has not improved much, with nearly 60 percent arguing it is not easy to get a job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI see a number of potential concerns for workers in the short and medium terms. Tariffs, though much lower than originally proposed, will be a drag on the bottom line of many employers. These employers will look for savings in other parts of their business, which I believe will squeeze labor,\u201d said Joshua Congdon-Hohman, an associate economics professor at the College of the Holy Cross.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The survey was conducted among 200 respondents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A majority of Americans said in a new survey that tariffs and inflation are erasing their hard work.
