In other words, you didn’t read the thread or you didn’t understand it....

He understands it just fine. What part of that reply don’t you agree with? You want to increase prices at the expense of consumers. Since when is it conservative to increase taxes and government control of the economy, while forcing higher prices on those who can’t afford it?

I truly understand the misguided logic behind all these tariff threads. Pretty simple, if we place tariffs on imports, we can create high paying jobs here in America. Our standard of living will increase because we are paid more. The increase in our wages will more than pay for the increase in the price of goods.

It’s a variation of the “lets all get wealthy by increasing the minimum wage” argument.
