I’m of both minds on this. Tariffs are not good, but then again, how does an American worker survive on what they are paying these folks overseas and in Central and South America?
Tariffs are the fairest tax of all. Some, including me, would call them regressive in nature. I like that. So how could any conservative be against them? In addition, if you don’t want to pay the tariff THEN DON’T BUY THE PRODUCT. Save your money at least you have that option with a tariff, with income taxes it spay or go to jail.
Take off the tariffs I currently have to pay for imported goods that I can no longer get manufactured in the USA, and I will be be hiring quite a few more Americans to work at good operations and logistics and sales and even IT jobs.
Raise them higher (as many on this site demand) and American factories will not magically appear to meet the demand - because people like me will be out of business and unable to buy their products, anyway.
