A side effect of tariffs is making less powerful countries play ball.
If democrats were pro-workers and pro-American, they’d support the tariffs. That’s the goal of tariffs. To bring jobs back to America, raised wage and take money away from China.
Yet, they whine it’ll raise prices if we deport illegal aliens. The Democrats just can’t break their slave labor addiction
In 1930, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the effects of the… Anyone? Anyone?.. the Great Depression, passed the… Anyone? Anyone? The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered?.. raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression.
We have tariffs. We gave had tariffs since the dawn of the nation. Are you ignorant enough to think we don’t have tariffs currently or think Trump was the first person to implement tariffs ?
