“Why jump through labor hoops and run the risk of strikes and fines when you can relocate the company to other countries where no such protections exist. Hell, they may even permit you to employ their children.”

Exactly. If Trump can BREAK THE BACKS OF UNIONS and get rid of the stupid regulations, we won’t even need tariffs, as it will be CHEAPER for companies to stay here...or move back.

Tariffs make foreign goods pay a tax burden similar to what our companies pay. It also helps ensure more employment of US citizens and help guarantee we have industries here in times of international crisis.

We don’t want to be dependent on computers and steel from China simply because we got rid of all of that here.
