Tariffs do not "interfere" with the domestic free market other than to make American companies more able to compete, creating more jobs, thus, higher wages.
It WILL increase consumer cost of certain items... We can't have $20 made in America keyboards as I explained in my example. We'll have to give up having cheap shit and re-acquaint ourselves again to durable American-made products. I don't think that is a bad thing.
The additional costs are due to additional profit taking and DOESN'T make a guarantee that you won't end up with cheap shit.
