Stop believing international socialist propagandists that want to destroy the U.S. border with free trade and illegals.During the 1800’s The U.S. used to have a very small limited government and high tariffs. This is how the U.S. became the world leader,and most technologically advanced society ever with the highest living standards. Read Pat Buchanan’s books or articles to see how free trade ruined America.

For since the Revolution, America has had a standard of living that has been the envy of the world. From the Civil War through the 1920s, as we became the greatest manufacturing power the world had ever seen, our workers enjoyed pay and benefits that were unmatched anywhere.Detroit the future of America:Yet our exports in those decades were double our imports, and our trade surpluses annually added 4 percent to the gross national product. How did we do it?
We taxed the products of foreign factories and workers and used the revenue to finance the government. We imposed tariffs of up to 40 percent on foreign goods entering our market and used the tariff money to keep taxes low in the United States.
We made foreigners pay a price to get their products into our market and made them pay to help finance our government. We put our own country and people first.

From there, it shouldn't be too difficult to understand why tariffs won't save the U.S., either, until our federal government is brought under control.
