When a country has to resort to tariffs to remain competitive, it means that the country is blaming others for its own incompetency
I am against import duties in general, but the current rules make things very difficult. It’s like competing in an Olympic race wearing lead shoes.

It's like competing in a business race where your competitor steals your products, sells them cheaper due to government help, and you loose your shirt... while the US Government does nothing because they are paid by lobbyists to do nothing except to lie to Joe Public.

We have to change the law if
@elonmusk or@Schwarzenegger wants to run for President. Currently immigrants are banned from the position. I think changing this is a good idea. -
It's in the Constitution. It would require an amendment.

Other Nations put on import duties/fees on US crap. Why can't the US put import duties on there crap? lol

Because when it comes to finances, our government hadn't a clue. Our government is made up of lawyers and attorneys. Litigators. For their business and favors to be determined, they basically are tax free throughout the commerce line.
