Here's a hint, junior: We have free trade in America.

Across state lines.

China can pound sand.

First one to use name-calling is losing the argument :)

Anyway, as I've tried to say here, those taxes aren't on China - they're on *us* when we buy their goods. You're advocating higher taxes on *us*.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

You need to get your head out of free traitor theory and look at the reality.

Tell me, since you know so much about economics, when is a foreign good taxed in the supply chain?

I will tell you something, the tariff comes about before any good goes to wholesale or retail markup.

So if you get a pair of shoes from China that were sold to an American wholesaler at $4 and those shoes are taxed at 25% at the border for tariff, then the tax is $1 on the manufacturer in China, and the wholesaler and retailer can still mark it up to $25, $50, $75 or whatever.

The wholesaler and retailer are still making massive profits with a tariff in place.

Learn something about the supply chain before spouting your gibberish.

By the way, I always laugh at you free traitors who would prefer to tax American capital before taxing foreign capital.

You want to buy china junk...move to china.

Don't want to pay taxes on china junk? Don't buy china junk.

Entirely voluntary system.
