I am not completely against tariffs, but believe that
removing corporate income taxes (in conjunction with removing corporate "personhood") is a better way to go.
Or dangle the carrot of tax breaks for companies that
hire Americans.

I agree with removing Federal corp income taxes, and revisting those sad court rulings that made corporations rebels against their masters, We are the masters of corporations for through our state covenrments we grant them their *limited* charters. Coprorations are not individuals, they are fiats of the state -- in the US the state is an merely the agent of the People, and the state in chartering and policing the corporations MUST -- by all that is honest and right by the laws and duties of agency -- act in OUR interets.

When a CORPORATION is the employer, it is OUR DUTY to hold it to act compatibly with and sometimes IN our interests, even if against its own to some bearable degree. Neal Boortz's logic "we don't own our jobs" applies only to sole proprieterships and partnerships unprotected by such Charters -- once a company of people seeks the protection of the state from liability, etc, and petitions for a corporate or LLP charter -- by golly, it is OUR DUE REGARD to demand that such a protected entity make our welfare its interest as well as its own, for it is WE when grant it the protections and rights accorded the corporate charter.
