I think what you meant to say was: American products are so vastly uncompetitive, that we should slap tariffs on imported goods so that Joe MetalStamper can keep making 40 $/hr wages plus meds and pension...

What you really meant to say was: "I agree with tariffs; lets tax all imported goods and drive up the cost for American consumers and discourage the emerging global economy from doing business with us. This will create American jobs and encourage third world $hit holes to pay their labor force more. What the hell are you smoking?

What the Hell did I mean to say? What I mean to say, or what I meant to say? I'm smoking Marlboros. /confused

That's the root of the problem amongst so called conservatives....there is a snobbish and a deepseated hatred for the blue collar class by some folks.....How do people think the middle class came about in this country? Joe Metalstamper should really be making $6.00 an hour with no benefits because that's all he's really worth...come on, admit it....but CEO's that drive a company into the ground and still get 30 million a year...well watch them justify that one, spin it into "well that's what he's worth to the shareholders"....i can't wrap my pea brain around that mentality.

I will agree with the confused part.

Tariffs do nothing but worsen the situation.
