A product “at the same price” from either our country or another is inherently more costly to your life if bought from a foreign country without a tariff in place to compensate.

Maybe, but then let me buy the product I want and openly tax me for the difference.

Your approach costs me the same 10% but the cost is hidden in the higher price of goods from subsidized industries.

All I'm advocating for is transparency and to minimize government driven market distortions.

You are free to choose to buy that product or not.

You’ve already been told your Chinese solar cells have a 30% tariff. How many more times must you be told before you understand that?
