> how do we argue in favor of tariffs? well there is theory and there is practice.  study the effect trump's steel tariffs had on the american steel industry for example - did it create jobs and profits?  we can also note the essential flaw in free trade -> the inequality of white societies and the third world that will work for slave wages with no rights. free trade with the third world is a massive wealth transfer of our hard-earned money to undeserving people - that is the only reason china became a world power.  with tariffs, not only do we have a valuable source of government revenue, but the higher prices for foreign goods are more than compensated by higher-paying manufacturing jobs available to american workers once more
