there is no amount of tariffs that will protect expensive western goods and workers...YOU the consumer want cheap goods..."raising the bar for obesity" does not make your products more attractive


as we see with trumps dumb ass attempt at cherry picking consequences you have 2 possible options:
1) your local production suffers because of cheap imports
2) your local production suffers because of counter tariffs
there is no scenario where you get to have the cake and eat it and not get fat...thats not how life works...
