Go buy quickly! These are the 4 things middle class Americans may not be able to afford post Donald Trump's inauguration

As US President- elect Donald Trump eventually prepares to take office for a second term on the date of January 20, numerous significant changes to the US economy are anticipated specifically due to his proposed tariffs. According to GO Banking Rates, US President- elect Donald Trump has pledged to implement a 10% tariff on global imports, a 60% tariff on goods from China and a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico which could eventually lead to increased prices for everyday household items.

GO Banking Rates reported that several experts have issued a warning that these tariffs could actually result in price hikes of up to 46% on electronics imported from the country China and around 19% on appliances. This shift is eventually expected to impact the middle class families significantly as costs for essential goods will surely rise.

Adding onto that, the healthcare costs might hugely soar due to US President- elect Donald Trump's plans to dismantle parts of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) while at the same time, potentially increasing monthly premiums by 20-30% and making coverage less accessible.


The higher education could also become more expensive under US President- elect Donald Trump's administration with potential increases in federal student loan interest rates and cuts to public university funding, asserted GO Banking Rates. The housing affordability is another concern while it is being forecasted that mortgage rates might climb and property taxes could increase and it will be making homeownership more challenging for many.

The transportation costs are likely to rise as well with increased prices for cars and gas due to the proposed tariffs, noted GO Banking Rates.
