I could care less if every American sugar farmer loses their job if the tariffs are removed. If they lose their jobs it is because they couldn’t get the job done. It would mean they were inadequate. AND I don’t care if other nations subsidize their sugar farmers either. I would rather get my sugar cheap from a foreigner than get it more expensively from an American.

Perhaps those that don’t like my attitude toward trade should be called a bunch of “Blue Eagle” fascists looking for another Great Depression.

Do you also support equal levels of regulation for those foreign producers? Things like OSHA, EPA, EOC and so on.

Its much more complex than just the price of labor. In many countries its perfectly legal to use human feces for fertilizer.
