"What you mean is, tax Americans to buy American."

No, I mean tax Americans for buying foreign. Use that tax to pay for the extra safety next outlays for the unemployed.

If Americans buy American, there is no tariff.

No matter how many times you repeat it, it is not true. Funny how protectionists claim that it's "about saving high-paying jobs" out of one side of their mouths, and out of the other side claim "but it won't cost you anything."

Where do you think the money to pay the "higher" wage comes from?

There is a Freeper on this very thread who recommends a 100% tariff on all imports, even oil. If he gets his wish, do you think American oil will increase in price? Why?
