Maybe the stuff made in tennessee will actually work?
Let me ask you, if you're for unregulated markets, does that extend to the labor market?

Also, as this source of revenue went up, other taxation could then decrease.

This is not the whole picture: it also pushes wages back into the USA and makes it feasible for there to be enough manufacturing in the USA that it can still compete amongst itself while still there. Which is nice for the manufacturers but I'm still paying more for my TV.
Keep in mind that the pre income tax Federal government was all funded from tariffs too. Somehow that didnât push a whole land into poverty.
That was long before Social Security and Medicare and $600 billion dollar defense budgets and all the rest.
You like cheap China stuff bad enough, go to China and live there and use it. OK?
I like living here, thanks anyway.

In most cases. And since you're not for unregulated markets does that include labor markets?
To: DoodleDawg
But your taxes will be less just from a static tariff offset, as well as there now being a new source of other taxes (the new employees).
So in the end you win.

If this happens, it’ll be interesting to observe how former government employees will adapt to manufacturing jobs. They might have to get off their assess and actually do some work. It’ll be a culture shock for ‘em.
I worked for local government for several years. I’d come home at night and have a meltdown after dealing with people who spent more time and effort to get out of working than they’d have done by just working.

Markets should be biased unless we want to define ourselves as economic doormat. Case by case exceptions can be negotiated forever under a trust-but-verify regime. And nobody proposes putting a lid on voluntary charity. But none of this enforced naked to our rival stuff.

You come out ahead by getting people off welfare.

Or my income taxes might remain the same and the tariff will be added. Or my income taxes might go down but not enough to offset the increase I pay due to tariffs. Who knows what might happen?
So in the end you win.
Or not.

You come out ahead by getting people off welfare. How does that make me ahead?

The most popular politicians, except for the parasite class panderers, keep on offering ways to cut the taxes.
And if you bring more workers home... voila! Less parasite class.

How does having a welfare slum near you affect you not.
Hmmm (scratches head)

And if they were, are they farmers clear to the horizon of those who can travel to you and give you trouble?

You might as well be a ShortsightedDawg.
Losing a work ethic means something indelible while the loss is going on.
