Whatever the answer, high tariffs will not solve the problem.

They built s into a superpower along with our other factors for the protectionist society. Your comment flies in the face of reality and the facts on the table. This is a standard position taken by free traitors though. It's a lie; but, to admit the truth sinks their ability to convince you that ruining the lives uf US citizens, subverting our economy, putting our nation at risk of collapse and or war is all just illusory tinfoil hat speak.. and that they must be allowed to do all those things at any rate because their motive is pure - profit. Ethics and morality be damned, slave labor is in vogue again and profit once again is the motive. Either they haven't learned any lessons from history or they're counting on them for pernicious purposes. Greed is not what drives this nation. It drives them to the exclusion apparently of much anything else..

So the answer is high tariffs? How exactly do we overcome these basics issues I enumerated above?

You didn't answer the question Havoc, just put forth more rhetoric. High tariffs would tie down this economy and make the country a basket case like the other closed economies in the world -- Cuba and North Korea.
