“Raise the import tariffs and put Americans back to work.”
I really hate it when I see this...
It is nothing but tripe, that does nothing to address why the jobs left the US in the first place.
Tariffs do nothing but lower an already lowered standard of living.

We need to lower or eliminate the corporate income tax. The corporate income tax is just another way to tax the consumer. It also has the effect of raising the cost of doing business by forcing corporations to take their businesses in directions that they otherwise would not have gone but for tax avoidance strategies.
We need to eliminate the tax on income made overseas by US corporations. This is driving many corporations off shore again to avoid taxes. It also forces corporations to reinvest profits made overseas in to other nations. Why should the US be the only industrialized nation to tax overseas profits? Why should be force our companies to leave profits overseas?
We need to stem the flood of outrageous new regulations that make everything more expensive for no good reason.
Why are jobs going overseas? Maybe because our government has made it impossible to keep them here.
