I'll repeat my reasoning. "Let the market decide" doesn't apply when the US worker is undermined by cheap foreign labor, legal and illegal. Another aspect is that we are in a race downward economically if goods which are produced by slave labor in foreign countries can undercut goods manufactured in the US. We need tariffs to stop that practice.

And please don't try the sophomoric argument that the US citizen benefits. Our globalist masters get obscenely rich from the practice, while US citizens become ever more dependent on government handouts. Haven't you noticed? The gap between rich and poor and the destruction of the middle class is out of control.

all of the problems you point out are due to bureaucrats selling favors at our expense. Your “solution” (for lack of a better world) is MORE bureaucratic action. What was that saying about the definition of insanity again?
