The result of tariffs is to take money from all American consumers and redistribute it to certain American industries chosen by government. This makes the connected few richer and the unconnected many poorer. If you support this then you are a corrupt sleazebag no different than Obama.
In most cases the tariff would not do what you said because the product ISN"T MADE IN THE USA ANYMORE, get it? Example flat screens.
You are confusing protective tariffs which our founding fathers believed in and supported with political favoritism and graft which can occur in any direction possible.
Any increases in costs to consumers are more than offset by the savings that results from Americans going back to work. And there is still competition between American firms to drive the price down.
