Why don't you seek some economics education. You're like people I know who can't spell worth beans and, thus, declare that spelling isn't important.
You obviously don't know any economics and, therefore, refuse to debate it lapsing into meaningless nationalistic bromides, instead.
Protectionism as you advocate would make our economy even worse.
Tell it to Madison, Monroe,Jefferson and Washington.

Just because someone is in favor of tariffs doesn't mean they are economically naive. In my case I am in no way connected to manufacturing. I really wouldn't benefit from tariffs, actually it would seem to affect me adversely. But that is shortsighted. The damage to this country that off shoring had done by economic libertarians, one like yourself that have no allegiance to anyone or any country, is worse. They are traitors and have to be fought, hard. But then again I did a lot of things that weren't directly in my best interest in the name of my country. There are many dead and wounded veterens who "job" couldn't be off shored.
I minored in econ in college. As you get older and WISER, you will understand that economics is taught in a political vacuum, which is ridiculous.
