Trouble is they charge a bunch for us to send our stuff to them. It should be closer to equal. They send their junk here for little money. Then nail us when we send our junk to them.

Yes it is.....Trump is not.

If you want to change the flow of the tide it may cause some difficulties....but if you do the same thing today as yesterday tomorrow will be the same as yesterday. Look at the globalization of Europe....bring the countries together to make a stronger economic force then take control of everything and steer it toward globalization..... along with that went welcoming the muslim hoard, it is a hand and hand progressive agenda. Either we go with it or against it.

this is a trapping forum right?

Who uses only USA made trapping products?

Jake traps?

Coon daggers?

MB550s?

All probably made with steel of foreign origin.

How about your waders and gloves?

Those made in the USA too?

Prior to 1913 we charged outside companies tariffs for the privilege of doing business here. This funded 95% of government. Now we charge our citizens for the privilege of living here.

The beer industry does not share your optimism

"This action will cause aluminum prices to rise and is likely to lead to job losses across the beer industry," Molson Coors said in a statement. "American workers and American consumers will suffer as a result of this misguided tariff."

Molson Coors is a globalist company...it should be obvious that they will not put America first.

Like single serving aluminum or glass containers ever was a good idea.

Here is what will happen... ( numbers are hypothetical )

Chinese steel presently sells for $45 a ton.

American steel presently sells for $75 a ton.

American government imposes a tariff of $40 a ton. This raises Chinese steel to $85 a ton.

American producers raise their price $9.99 a ton to $84.99 a ton.

Americans are now able to beat Chinese steel prices, but the tariff did nothing to save the consumer money.

And the government won't care because they collect revenue no matter what.

So the cost of a $.01 can doubles to $.02. I can see them doubling the price of beer over that. LOL

Yup, it just shows who Molson is backing. No jobs will be lost because a beer can cost a little more. Its all progressive/globalist propaganda.

If you want a Great America again it may cost you a little bit.

I'm not sure trump or any government economist is smart enough to diddle with tariffs to help this or that. I now understand tariffs better. They used to be a necessary evil to fund government. Now we fund government through outright theft of American wealth. If we decide to use tariffs to offset taxes, fine. However, let's not kid ourselves about the ability of government to shape or mold our economy. My state government, for example, cannot even print vehicle titles anymore. They spent 90 MILLION on a computer system that doesn't work. And we areally supposed to trust these people to guide our economy? Yeah right.
