“More import tariffs and less Marxist income taxes.”
Most stuff we use should be made in the USA.
We simply shouldn’t be importing:
1. stuff that can be made and packaged by automated equipment
[we should only be importing high comparative advantage products
like sewn garments and other high assembly time consumer products]
2. ferrous products for motor vehicles
[we export few cars - tariffs on automobile grade steel won’t hurt US automakers]
3. aluminum alloys for aircraft
[we need the absolute ability to build warplanes]
4. inputs to make plastic products
[this stuff is made at industrial scale]
5. life-saving drugs and their precursors
[so our sick people can’t be held hostage by anti-American governments]
Primarily low cost-high labor content stuff we can’t make cheaply enough should be imported.
Raw materials should come in mainly tariff free.
I don’t see tariff revenue exceeding $10 billion/year after 2035 under my tariff/reindustrialization plan.
MAKE.EVERYTHING.IN.THE.USA. Never give an inch.
