Actually, I do get "it".

Tariffs have been made artificially low in the USA due to excessive income taxes and free-traders like yourself wanting to make it profitable for Global corporations to subjugate slave-labor and/or dirt cheap labor for easy profits...and you think there is any difference between this system of exploitation and having slave-labor within the USA? LMAO

I had a friend who made a fortune doing import/export with China in the early 90s...after witnessing atrocities personally and having to pay bribes to ChiCom representatives (sometimes accompanied by armed troops) he decided it was better to sleep at night than be involved.

Why is it that slave-labor makes you so happy, are you an investor in Global Corporate Imperialist concerns?

Just following the example of the Founders. Seriously, there is nothing "moral" about business. The only restrictions on business are legal restrictions and in some cases Union contracts. Those two restrictions have a LOT to do with companies chasing cheap labor along with the fact that they now have the technology to do so. Labor costs are the largest single cost of doing business and the most controllable cost they have. It is simple economics.
