What are the negative effects brought about by imports? No feelings, just facts, if you could?
Economics 101.
Trade between the US and foreign countries have both positive and negative consequences. A positive effect of trade is the creation of jobs, but trade also destroys jobs. Increases in U.S. exports tend to create jobs in this country, while increases in imports tend to reduce jobs and for good reason. Imports displace goods that otherwise would have been made in the US by domestic workers.
