They failed historically

BS. The USA was out of debt and fought three major wars the war of 1812, Civil, WWI using tariffs as the primary means of income. You see guys like you, progressives, love the income tax. I don't get it. You come to free republic and espousing suicidal free trade but the USA was a much stronger nation when were protectionist(pre 1913). Go figure.

Yap at me later after you’ve lived one month, 30 days, with a 100% protectionist tariff against any goods not made by Central VA or his household.

Video record the whole thing for FR. Prove your ideas work or prove you’re a fool. Ping me on July 10, 2015 with the results of your glorious tariff experiment or do you need a little more time to prep and stock up?
