In the mean-time we can use the proceeds to...

...pay unemployment benefits to the millions of Americans making goods for export who lost their jobs due to retaliatory tariffs.

You act as if the US market is negligible! As if we depend on exports! I would remind you that WE are the largest consumer in the world. The US represents almost a quarter of the world wide market and you ignore the fact that when we have factories producing in the US again, we WILL BE ABLE TO BUY U.S. products again instead of buying Chinese junk that usually fails and needs to be repaired or purchased again. US workers receiving US paychecks will cause small businesses...the backbone of our economy...to flourish and provide more jobs as they grow and expand. It will have a snowball effect and benefit everyone.

Yeah there will be a few soybean farmers who will have to change crops because of retaliatory tariffs.

Have you looked at how much we import compared to what we export it’s not even close.
