I am starting to favor restrictive tariffs, though that is only one idea.

We have now however reached a point where China exports more than America.

It is time to change.

Me too, I'd use tariffs and get rid of the income tax altogether or at least make is a small flat tax where any money made over $25K would be taxed. I'd also lower taxes generally and regulations as well. I'd rein in the EPA although I'd dump them altogether.

Having competitive tariffs on foreign goods and services would do a lot more to stimulate and grow the economy than the present system of Free Trade and high income taxes.

Really? I'm a pig American consumer. I like cheap, good stuff. The more the better! The cheaper the better!

It is time to change.

That would be bad. My stuff would get more expensive. I'd be able to afford less of it. That would be bad. (But so far, so good. I can afford many more times cheap stuff than I can actually use! LOL!)

There are no tariffs protecting what I do. What I do can be exported wherever there is internet access and people as smart as I am.

Therefore, there should be no tariffs whatsoever!
