As far as putting up obstacles to importing, that is a leftist idea. We do not need government to act in the private sector at all. Americans are some of the most productive in the world when left to compete freely. Asking the government to act to level a playing field that they are making unlevel is not logical.
Well I am an American first, a conservative second.
All my values hinge on building America stronger first of all. To the extent that is possible while also building business that is also great.
But America first and always.
Perhaps it’s just me, deciding things that way.
So be it.
