I have heard some chuds who admit it will raise prices in the short-term but say that in the long-term it will even out competition for local, good old American companies to come in and save the day and finally be competitive. Then we’ll have more jobs. Same when we kick out the immigrants who are also stealing all our jobs.
But it excludes a bunch of considerations, like the fact that evil foreign companies didn’t come in and steal our manufacturing jobs, it was given to them by porky. And they did it to pay people less. If it’s in the US, pay will have to go up, which will increase costs to the consumer. Or, pay won’t go up, so we’ll have jobs but they won’t be a livable wage.
But that probably won’t happen anyway, because we just don’t have the manufacturing capability here anymore. It will take decades to years to match all the things we import. Either way, the enemy is the capitalists here at home, not foreigners.
