>>>Keep raising the tariffs until the jobs and industries come back to America and the trade deficit balances.
The President has raised tariffs this year and now Industrial Production in the manufacturing sector is less than it was in December 2018.

Why yes, buy American. The idea is to give pain to Chinese products and relief by buying the American products. This is all done in hopes that the manufacturing will be moved back home where it belongs.

So where are all the workers for your manufacturing plants going to come from?The labor participation rate is around 60%. 40% will work. Even lazy slobs like you.

But the whole basis of the article is just plain stupid.
We raised tariffs on them but the Chinese did not raise their prices so the Americans are paying the tariffs??
