Think of the tariff as a “Buy American” tax. Either Buy American and put your fellow countrymen to work or either you or China is going to have to pay the tariff.

Either Buy American and put your fellow countrymen to work or either you or China is going to have to pay the tariff.

Tariffs are like taxes.

The end-user pays the tariff. Just as the end-user pays the tax.

In order to "put our fellow countryman to workj", he must produce a product of similar quality at a lower price, or of higher quality at the same price.

Until then, a tariff is simply another tax on the American consumer.

Again, you fail to recognize that we all pay under your plan, whether we buy American or not. So the questions become: 1. how much more do you want us to pay in order to buy American or otherwise, and 2. how will this money, and your coercive taking of it out of our pockets create prosperity?

Well said!

Buy American.

And tax foreign.
