Slave labor and cheap, low-skill labor are only efficient in low-end industries. If you're in an industry where an illiterate third-worlder can replace you for ten cents an hour, you need to start thinking about a career change. But you certainly should not expect the government to protect your cozy, inefficient job by forcing your fellow citizens to pay more for products.

Slave labor is good. The US Constitution abolishing slavery is something to be ignored. Anyone who supports Constitutional government including constitutional tariffs must be made the recipients of ad hominem attacks. Your "free trader" playbook needs to be updated. These are old, tired and false arguments. Most of the American people don't fall for them anymore.

Slave labor is good. The US Constitution abolishing slavery is something to be ignored.

Again, the only one who supports slave labor is the strawman you've created.

Anyone who supports Constitutional government including constitutional tariffs must be made the recipients of ad hominem attacks.

Nobody is claiming that tariffs are unconstitutional, just that they're a bad idea.

These are old, tired and false arguments. Most of the American people don't fall for them anymore.

Which is why, I suppose, Americans buy hundreds of billions of dollars of foreign-made goods every year.

Personally, I believe my fellow Americans are qualified to make their own decisions as to what goods to buy, foreign or domestic. You want to use the nanny-state to prevent them from making the choice to, for example, purchase a Sony big-screen.

So, which one of us is anti-American?
