Tariffs don’t save industries. By protecting them from competition they weaken them and raise prices across the board. Protecting stagnant industries cannot improve the economy only make it less able to compete. A free economy is the best protection for our industry.

LOL, So how is it that steel and aluminum industries are thriving BECAUSE of free trade?

"we had to kill the domestic industry with free trade in order to save it"
