Why does the rest of the world almost universally practice protectionism? And name a country with lower average tariff rates than the USA. Answer those questions or shut up you globalist hacks at the no Wall Street Urinal.

The 30 year globalist experiment in "Free Trade" is an abject failure. Why? because the rest of the of world didn't play along and used the USA like a cheap whore.

Yup - since “free trade” took off - wages for the bottom 80% of workers has been zero adjusted for inflation, GDP has grown at only 2% (vs our LT average of 4%), and we went from no trade deficit to over 1/2 trillion a year.
