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?

Once again, great spin. You're saying instead of creating a free country where citizens were free of personal income tax and could freely compete with each other in the domestic market, our Founders created a nanny state?

The nanny state is the result of the corporatist fascism that "free traders" love. It didn't exist until the globalist "free traders" infested our government bent on corrupting it beyond recognition. You're starting to sound a little ridiculous now, and your abhorrence to the US Constitution is showing.
