Tariffs are bad ideas, all they do is increase the price of our domestic goods to match the world price. They have a comparative advantage, and we should be realistically buying from them.

totally agree.
señor fingers, you should look more deeply at what you say, because it has long time consequences.
study some economics like i said before.
Government shouldnt tax low income and neither high income people.
you see, the "big corps" are the ones who pay better wages and have better working conditions, if the government tax them, they would move to a country where they have more incentives and lots of americans would lose their jobs.
If you put heavier tariffs, you only make certain sectors to become inefficient because they dont have to compete, and american people will be losing because now they would have to pay MORE for the products they WANT to consume. for example, if you want a lb of bananas now that were 1 buck, now you'll have to pay 2 bucks or more, no big deal huh, but now imagine you want a toyota, it will be very expensive.
I agree about getting rid of politicians lol, but you gotta understand that they are not saints nor aliens, they are simple humans, and they serve their own purpose while they were suppossed to serve for the people. this is the Invisible Hand of corruption.
Companies and "rich people" do not exploit the workers, thats a fallacy, nobody has a weapon on your head making you work for them, you are FREE TO CHOOSE.
People have to understand that THE ROAD TO HELL is paved with good intentions.
