See all the posts in this thread in response to you? You just got schooled, boy.
Maybe as a staunch defender of collectivist thought, you could explain to us how the people of the US, especially the poor and middle class, would benefit from an increase of 45% on the things they buy that are imported.
Then you might want to explain why domestic producers wouldn't increase prices to consumers when the government forces an increase on imported products.
Finally, why are you so eager to give government more of our money and increase its control over the economy? Are you a champion of the 5-year-plan? Do you realize that taking a class in home economics really isn't the same economics we're discussing here?
