I’m saying that in effect I have implemented a tariff policy on myself by not purchasing goods produced in slave-labor places, and it works just fine.
You haven’t implemented a tariff policy on yourself. You’re still buying the product of someone else’s labor. Do to yourself what you ask to do to me. That’s the proof that you’re not a liar and a hypocrite.
But you won’t do that because even as you type you know that you cannot produce all that you need in an effective or efficient manner. Tariff yourself, before you tariff me.
