Please, history is written by Big Corp special interest. Tariffs always work if allowed to stay in place.

Tariff the hell out of em. The only way to level the playing field for working Americans. Who have been cast aside for Big C’s bottom line. The working class is now the poor working class.

Throughout most of U.S. history there have been tariffs. The U.S. has led the world’s economies during most of its history too. Tariffs -used correctly- can help infant and certain critical industries thrive and survive.

Sure it does. Ever hear of George Washington’s tariff of 1789?

BTW China has an incredible wall of tariffs, they seem to be prospering quite well.
