So what. If they're made in the U.S., they won't have a tariff.

Wow. Am I on FR, or did I stumble onto HuffPo or something? A massive tax increase gets a comment of "so what?"

That's called "incentive".

All taxes are incentives. You want to raise taxes massively on American consumers?

The whole idea of "consumers" is a Gramscian subversion.

The people who live and work in the USA are citizens, and our countrymen.

If they choose to "consume" with their earnings, that's Liberty.

But the notion that the PURPOSE of government is to supervise, protect, and stimulate "consumers" is pure Leftism.

Here's a hint, junior: We have free trade in America.

Across state lines.

China can pound sand.

The first law signed by President Washington was the Tariff Act. Tariffs are not a new idea and it s very conservative.
