Do we then continue to deal with foreign subsidizes companies?
Well let me ask you this..........
If the company you bought your car from, was taking money from the executive board, to subsidize the cost of the car they sell you..... so that now you can buy that car for $1,000 less.....
Would you be saying "Am I supposed to continue dealing with subsidized cars?"
No, you would not. You being able to buy a product at a lower price is not..... a burden to you.
When the government of China..... taxes the people of China...... to sell us steel at a lower price.... this isn't a burden to us.
How do we compete? Well.... pretty easily. We take the cheap steel, and make products with it.
Which will make us more competitive? You tell me..... paying super high prices on steel with tariffs, that force us to charge higher prices for our products? Or paying low prices on steel subsidized by Chinese tax payers, and sell products at lower prices?
Obviously we will be more competitive, if we can get the materials to produce goods at a lower price.
Remember, we have been competitive in the world, with imported goods, for over 5 decades now.
We have not been in a 5 decade long depression. We have done really well. We're still the largest economy in the world, by a wide margin.
can't make this shit up. Tariff until there is fair trade. Period. otherwise, you pay more taxes.
