Tariffs should be levied against any countries to adjust for wages paid there,

Yes! So if you make $30 an hour, but the workers at McDonalds only make $7.50, we should adjust your food with an extra 300% tax. Sound about right?

We are talking about labor arbitrage across international borders. Try to keep to the subject at hand.

No not at all asshat. If Apple pays 20 cents an hour in China they are hit with a massive tariff at the border. If carrier moves to Mexico to save 50% in labor we hit them with a 50% tariff at the border. If Apple factories polute the air that will blow here anyway we hit them for that. You know exactly what I meant and you know you have to change the debate to make a point that is unrelated. You are not worth anyone’s time in this discussion.
