We need tariffs on Chinese goods as a bargaining chip if nothing else.

We need "tit-for-tat" tariffs. We should impose the exact same tariffs on a country's exports to our country as they do to imports from our country. We also need to examine the various ways in which some or our "trading partners" subsidize their domestic industries and impose tariffs to cover that as well.

I have no objection to tit-for tat tariffs and in many ways think them to be quite a good idea but we also need to address past damage and non-tariff barriers to trade.
