The way I see it countries like China have dump their cheap products in the American markets for decades and everybody has got use to buying the cheap shit, which never last very long, then buy more of same cheap shit! So if you want more jobs we need to buy more products made in the USA which will bring more jobs, you can't have it both ways, everybody wants higher wages, well to have higher wages and more jobs you need to buy more products made in America I don't mind spending more for a product that will last

You mean like iPhones which are built in China? Your post is nothing but conservative myths and lies. Right now manufacturing in the US is at an all time high. Exports from manufacturing is at a peak. Manufactures can't find enough works to fill job openings. There is no data out there that can prove your points while there are plenty of studies and stories to prove mine.

We could all wait and see what happens.
There is always the possibility that this will revitalize several major industries and result in more jobs for Americans.
That's the last thing that the Socialist/Progressive/Liberal/Democrat Left wants.

I bought a set of Chinese tires once. Saved $600. They lasted a month. Obama slapped a 35% tariff on Chinese tires. It was the right call. Same with their dry wall. Terrible product, but cheap.

Their Dry Wall sucks but a tariff is not the answer.

Tariff is the answer????....that is not free trade.
In fact there is no such thing as free trade.
You think Trump will negotiate a free trade pack?
Free trade....would mean I could sell what ever I wanted with whomever would buy it. We do not even have that within this country. There are more rules than Carter has liver pills.
If that was the case....Trump or any other President would not have to negotiate a 'Free Trade' agreement.
So once you establish that there is no such think....you will realize that politicians from each country are just negotiating for their minority donor class.

So just pass a law that you can not buy anything not made in this country. See how competitive we stay in the world.

This is way over these little boys head. Most of Hot Rods group haven't been 100 miles from home. They are not a world conscious bunch. They are scared white people that are an embarrassment to the white race
