Is this comedy? THE REST OF THE WORLD IS PROTECTIONIST! Do I have to post the tariff rate schedule of the entire world, again? This will show the average tariff the USA charges is less than 2% and the rest of the world 8% or more.
Wilbur Ross was a member of an international panel at Davis discussing global trade and possible US tariffs. After listening to the globalists on the panel decry the impact US tariffs would have on international trade, Ross asked one question that left the panel speechless. “Name one country in the world that is less protectionist than the US?” Crickets. There is none.
Uncle Sap has been taken advantage of by the rest of the world and to the detriment of American workers. Industries and good paying jobs have been exported. We run a trade deficit with almost every country in the world. Trump wants fair and reciprocal trade. China, the EU, etc. protect their domestic markets using border taxes, e.g., VATs, and regulations. It is not a level playing field.
