>>Here is a historical perspective of US tariffs:

History does not account for massive changes in communications and transoceanic shipping that have occurred in the past 30 years. The entire game has changed and the old rules greatly penalize the worker in the developed nation (i.e. Americans). We can’t be a nation of philosopher-poets (as Nancy Pelosi suggested we could). Americans need work too.
