You earlier in this thread were defending OPIC as a god program. Now care to atke up the challenge and provide clear and convincing factuial evidence that protective tariffs have harmed the economy of the USA. Preferably a case where a protective tariff has harmed the USA when the overall effect of that protective tariff was the revenue raised offset other taxes. Because I am not arguing for higher overall taxes merely a shift of teh revenue sourceing to tariffs instead of income taxes. As I ahve repeatedly said my choice would be from Corporate income taxes.
