Tariffs reduce the need for income from income taxes.

That’s a very good thing.

the usa exports steel.

so why be concerned one way or another with a tariff on mexican steel importation?

So Canada will go back to their 25% tariff on US steel? I can’t search right now, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it was before all of this started.

Do you honestly believe Industrializiation would have ever kicked off with free trade in the 19th Century when the British could have flooded the American market like they did Europe with their textiles and other products?

Of course not, where did I even imply that? Let me repeat myself for you. Tariffs were the only means to fund the government until they figured out how to tax our businesses and personal incomes..............You have a problem with that?
