before income taxes in wwi and started printing money after the federal reserve was created in 1913 the us government was 100% tarriffs. there was no inflation. everything was cheap. you have two choices; buy american or buy foreign. foreign is a luxury. you want french champagne instead of california wines? fine pay the tarriffs. or drink californian. it's so obvious. no country should be undercutting your own industries or workers by dumping their shit on you under the cover of "free trade" the usa fought the civil war over tarriffs. that's why the first shots of the war were fired on fort sumter by the confederacy. fort sumter was a tarriff levy station. slavery was secondary. it was free trade vs protectionism.  and look it's all the same issues again; cheap labor, slave labor is pouring in to undercut american workers and free trade is killing the american economy. the people pulling this shit are the same cocksuckers that own the bank of england and the federal reserve.
