Tariffs penalize and are a tax on the American consumer and lower our standard of living.

Tariffs increase domestic spending on manufacturing infrastructure and machinery. Manufacturing crates wealth. Importing drains wealth. Tariffs stimulates the economy and raises wages. Tariff are the key to prosperity.

Tariffs do not stimulate an economy, but they do take the reigns off of people who choose to be productive.
