I hope Mr. Williams will write his next article on why tariffs are so beneficial to a coutry's economy that we should revise our Constitution to allow states and even cities and towns to impose tariffs on good coming in from other states and cities so as to keep each state's workers fully employed. </sarcasm off>

We don't need regional or state tarriffs within the country because Americans are free to move wherever the jobs are. Basically this is because we have a unified governmental system and a unified economic system.

You are free to move to China to get a job, I suppose, but the difference is that you would have to live in a Communist state with no freedoms, or possibly even move to a labor camp and risk having your body parts sold to the highest bidder. That's because China does not share our political system or economic system.
