Where are the Tariff loving Yankees of yore when you need them?

All these tax lovers and the admin don't do a thing?  Maybe it's not a troll attack but just an info problem.

History: back in the 1700's some patriots rebelled against the UK's import taxes and they had a tea party so the import tax lovers fled to Canada. Our problem now is we got New England import tax lovers joined with the Detroit payroll tax lovers, the Chicago income tax lovers and the California everything tax lovers and they're all are in congress taxing and spending all they can before today's tea party kicks them out.

Then we'll only have tax lovers on threads like these...

A tariff is technically not a tax and it is consumption based. It is far better than an income tax and superior to the stealth vat tax. Tariffs require balls to enforce, it is easy to wage levies against us commoners, but against entire nations, well that takes courage....
