Taxes on foreign companies ensure that the US government receives funds without increasing the amount of tax placed on US corporations and persons.

Tariffs on foreign goods cost US corporations and persons money.

Therefore, that ensures a lower tax rate for domestic business and keeps more money in the pockets of US consumers.

Except the consumers who have to pay higher prices.

It also acts as an incentive for our consumers, who have more money to spend, to buy domestic... as the foreign goods have a higher sale price

And those domestic prices won't rise when the foreign prices increase?
