I think a lot about the idea of tarrifs

I am disturbed by liberals advocacy for free trade at all costs. I don’t understand how Democrats have become the ultimate advocates of free trade over fair trade. Or how the flood of cheap imported timber, farm goods auto parts and electronic devices are good for anyone.

We all need the basics to live but nothing in the constitution guarantees that they should be cheap. A lot of things we all could do without. People hate inflation but maybe it should not be a time for cutting corners and more discount items but simply buying less and doing without.
