Because had you been an economics major you'd be embarrassed to even ask such questions. Don't you think it's funny that of all the angry paleos on this thread who think we're all doomed, etc., that none of them were economics majors AND capitalists

As sopmeone who over teh past months has displayed a complete misunderstanding of the priciples of Free Trade by as defined by Smith and Riccardo you are harldy one to be talking about economics a subject in which your knowledge is sorely lacking. Now if you would like to prove me wrong come up with a study that shows a net harm from any tariff the USA has ever imposed. I have been asking for such for months and you have yet to come up with anything. Someone who claims to know economics should be able to back that claim with evidence.

Please don't lie (and geez... learn how to type). You've been shown numerous in-depth studies of the 2002 steel tariffs and the fact that they cost far more American jobs than they created or "saved".

The China_Dawg has never set foot on a college campus, much less gotten a degree.
