So explain why is it good for me to pay an extra tax on a foreign car so UAW members can get more money for less work?

Or, from another perspective, why should the hypothetical UAW member pay more for a chip so some engineer could get more money for less work?

Ultimately, the present imbalance makes China and India stronger - while the U.S becomes weaker. That will ultimately have consequences on the geopolitical balance of power. And U.S. service men and women will bleed and die in the resulting wars.

The free traitors' cheap garbage has a hidden price - one which will become all too apparent in the years ahead.

The UAW member shouldn't. We engineers can and do compete worldwide.

I disagree that free trade makes the US weaker. Only by doing what we can do best, will we be as strong as we can be.

Restricting trade is more likely to lead to war.
