You prefer Income Taxes to tariffs?

The US ran quite well...and had its biggest economic growth when we had tariffs. Unfortunately....internationalists like yourself preferred Marxist influenced income taxes to replace tariffs.

After 100 years of income taxes instead of tariffs....the US is now a welfare state with no industry or manufacturing....well we do manufacture debt and government checks

Yep. Chairman Mao would love this Free Trade

In whose world is that an either/or proposition?

Let me know when you repeal the 16th Amendment, Ok?

the US is now a welfare state with no industry or manufacturing.

And that's because we don't have tariffs instead of politicians making people dependent on entitlements so they can maintain political power? Economic and political illiteracy is also a problem, especially with your posts.

By the way, in 2011, US manufacturing contributed $1.8 trillion to our economy. Of that, $1.3 trillion was exported. Our manufacturing accounted for 86% of all goods exported that year. Like the guy who started this thread, you are woefully uninformed, so you offer no facts, but lots of feelings.

Nonsense. Mao was a despot and a dictator who wanted nothing to do with individual liberty, other than his own. The fascists had a motto: everything for the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state. You seem to be on the same page as those guys. Are you a fascist?
