Are you saying tariffs affect domestic prices(keeps them high) when there is domestic competition present? If so, these domestic competitors are colluding in price fixing and anti trust laws apply.

What you are saying is that I don't understand economics but the issue is you can't believe I am not in favor of paying less for widget A regardless of where it is produced. You cant get a grip that I, or any red blooded American for that matter, would be wiling to pay say 10% more for a US made widget A over a slave produced one. I must be retarded right to want to pay more?

There is nothing MORE expensive than cheap imports.
