    Jakarta—The 28-percent average tariff rate in the United States today, even with the 90-day pause, is significantly higher than the average rate of 19.8 percent imposed during the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930. The highest Smoot-Hawley tariff rate was 59.1 percent, well below the 145 percent that the Trump administration has slapped on all Chinese imports. Today’s tariffs return the US to its 1821 to 1900 average 29.7-percent tariff rate.
