We don't compete with China for manufacturing anymore because it's all over there. What are tariffs going to do now, protect the cheap Barbie doll plastic toy manufacturers? They don't exist.

The beauty of a factory is it can move back. Repatriation of industry is going to happen or we will have a bloody Civil War.

The point of a tariff scheme is two fold and protectionism is only one half of the equation. The purpose is as a legitimate form of revenue for the FedGov™. It is consumption based and much better form of taxation. Revenues from tariffs could relieve the need for income taxes. A good thing. If you want to get rid of the income tax and affect corporate behavior at the same then here is your answer.

The fact that you think the Establishment wants Cruz is delusional as to be ignored.

Okay, that settles it. You are paying NO attention. You may be ignored as ignorant.

You tariff China now you simply stop goods from coming into the US. If you think factories are going to miraculously pop up in the Midwest to make t-shirts and duffel bags you are lost.

Another Republicant spouting negative dismal and false BS all over the interwebs. Shoo.

All you keep saying is ‘drone’ to everyone.

Not too solid a rock to place your perch.

Just as you rail against the Donor class then put your support behind the head of the Donor class.

Independent thought - maybe it’ll come back in 2017.

As I saw in someone’s tag line once - “I callz em as I seez em.”

Ignorance is as ignorance does. Or something like that.

who said I was against the donor class? I am against the establishment being masters to the donor class.

You still have not answered the question.

would you rather have in power a guy who is not answering to special interests or the guy who has to answer to special interest?

Simple question .

Friend - modern economics will dictate that unless you are willing to pay 50-100% for a t-shirt that is made in the US those factories are never coming back. The labor costs plus the benefit costs just don't make it possible. Simply look to Ford as a modern example.

Now maybe the population will be willing to, you never know. Then I'll be deemed wrong and will be happy to admit it out loud.

Textiles are poor example of manufacturing and are on outlier. Textiles and apparel are very labor intensive. Most manufacturing is not and labor is a small component in production costs. That is why Free Traitors always use textiles as their throw away example.

I'll clarify. Trump IS the special interest, he has been for decades. The people you hate, the ones that buy influence and favor over the corrupt politicians, that's what he does for a living. He tells anyone that whenever he gets the chance.

So.....as a Conservative I want to vote for the person who has always held the same principles I do. Not the guy who decided when he ran for president that some of the principles make sense so he'll adopt them and other don't so he'll ignore them.

The purity test that is now being deployed is pure folly. No one is perfect, least of all Cruz. I for one would hope he will abandon the VAT proposal and go with a straight flat tax. I'm glad he backed off the Hb-1 issue because in this environment it's toxic.

So I've answered you I think. Now answer me, does the simple prospect of a wall mean more to you than say, Universal health care so all those people that are dying in the streets now don't? Or are you ok with Trump's vow not to touch SS or Medicare despite the soon insolvency? Or does it bother you that Trump railed against Scalia’s dissent on Affirmative Action (which was brilliant) without even reading it because he actually supports it?

You don't even need to answer. He's not perfect and that's my point. But he's not Conservative and that's why, unless I'm forced to vote for him in the general (which I will) I can't.

I give you a hard example and you tell me you don't like it even though it's purely factual.

For crying out loud - ok, you pick a manufacturing base then.

Best you can do? So with Robotics who gets the jobs? The Japanese, Taiwanese and the Koreans who build the components for the robots?

Ignorance is bliss.......maybe not in this case.

I think I know what happened to you.

All your answers are 1980’s-based.

Robotics is happening in America now.

Come take a swim in lake 2016. The water’s fine!
