“No, tariffs do not increase employment in the long run”

Will you admit that China has imposed tariffs on car imports, thus car companies produce cars in China for the Chinese consumers using Chinese labor?

Most, not all, but most cars sold in China are made there. Chinese tariffs on cars has dramatically increased employment in the Chinese auto sector.

Other sectors in China pay the bill for the auto tariffs.

There is not a net gain from a tariff, economically. Trump has adopted that policy to address the unfair tariffs we face.

He wants to get rid of tariffs because he realizes they are economically destructive.
