Let’s hear your ideas. How do you propose to “bring back American jobs?”

Not this kid.

I just am trying to win over a majority of people that we actually need American jobs.

Now and in the future.

I’ll let everyone discuss how that can be done. I’m just saying we need to stop shipping jobs away, and turn that around now.

Somehow.

The solution is Smoot-Hawley. Bring back high tariffs. We don’t export anything, so our exports won’t be an issue. The tariff will increase our GPD, just on supporting local consumption of local goods as foreign goods become more expensive. We are the consumption cow of the world. Why not take advantage of that. Yes, prices will rise, but so will our employment. And putting everyone back to work will bring more competition, eventually.
