History is not on your side. Sweeping tariffs are BAD for the country.
Capitalism is carrot-motivated, NOT stick. You want companies to manufacture in the US? Provide incentives to do so, not threats if they don't.
You said earlier it will take longer than 1 term to build out. You're 100% correct. So why did Trump full send the tariffs right away? I agree that we need more manufacturing in this country but it's a 10-20 year goal...which is why you slowly increase the tariffs to allow companies time to build out while also not fucking over your citizens.
I was just going to address the tariffs thing but...buddy, those laws exist because race was - and still is - part of the decision making process. It was nearly impossible for a non-white person to get a good job.
