Higher tariffs probably make some sense in certain cases. Not so in others. But one thing is for sure, this country and its workers have been getting repeatedly rolled by “free trade” agreements for over thirty years now.

AND the result is we have LOST our Manufacturing Base, the prime source of our wealth and stability.
We started out as a country with tariffs. Time to use them to protect what we have left and even-up the playing field. It has become RIDICULOUS that one can’t buy a simple plate, cup and saucer, cooking utensil, screwdriver, or anything else for that matter that isn’t marked MADE IN CHINA!
