so Toyota and Nissan sells those pickups they make in the US at a loss, is that it?

tell us who benefits from the tech industry moving offshore? those were supposed to be the jobs of the future, when manufacturing left the US. what's going to replace tech and knowledge jobs? more service jobs (low pay), more government jobs, more health care workers, more real estate agents?

No, no one does that. But if we follow your plans to make their steel more expensive, they might shut down the plants they have.

To the extent that the tech industry does it and it cuts costs, it's part of the reason you and millions of others can afford to type on your computer right now, actually. And as a small businessman, I will gladly outsource tech work if it helps keep me afloat.

BTW, we're still short on health care workers--some parts of the country are in crisis.
