We Are bankrupt. We need revenue, and tariffs.
We agree that our gov't needs more revenue.
As tariff rates have been cut over the years the amount of tariff revenue has soared. Before '03 revenue was falling and it increased since the '03 cuts. Fortunately we're not bankrupt, unless your 'we' excludes most Americans and their government.
