The truth is that tariffs... WERE AND ARE necessary to protect domestic markets...
The "pauper labor of Europe" was campaigned against by Mc Kinley in 1900!!
Google "The McKinley Tariff" ... Tariffs protected American industry for the entire 19th and most of the 20th Century...
There is a way to fight "pauper labor"....and it's centuries old...!! NOT NEW... Tariffs!
Why can only China have tariffs...? Whose coddling China...? The Rich and International Capital...
Its protective tariffs that will keep good jobs in America... and protect us from the paupers of the world.
Here's the dirty little secret that Wall Street and their radical right don't want to tell you...
ALL ECONOMIES ARE LOCAL...! There is no such thing as a Global Economy... Tariffs maintain the needed equilibrium in the world economy.
And while you're googling the "McKinley Tariff"...
Try studying "Free Trade"...its not an economic doctrine...its a political tool that is used to destroy domestic enemies... And it always has been...
For example the Democrats used "free trade" in the 19th Century to "get at" the Trusts and large corporations...and the Republicans were the TARIFF PARTY...!!
Why doesn't Glenn Beck "teach" this "fact" about American History...
My message to America is : You don't have to destroy yourself...just to please International Capital and the Global Rich...
