Fine. If that's your goal, then screw the NRST and go with a 20% import tariff.

Same thing.

Not the same thing. Somewhere in the middle. But I would certainly rather have import tarrifs than what we have now for the reasons described above.

Incidentally it would have to be a lot higher than 20%. There is some talk of putting a 27% tarrif on Chinese exports if they don't clean up their act regarding tying their currency to the dollar.
