In fact, a better idea is to increase the original federal tax, tariffs. Not specific trade tariffs (i.e. steel import tariffs), but a flat tariff on all imported goods. This may also curb outsourcing. If China-made products are going to have to same price as USA-made products, why would compaines bother outsourcing? Yes, companies don't have to pay the tariffs, the consumer does. But wouldn't the consumer buy a product made by someone treated decently than something made in a sweatshop if they were the same price? Think about it, if "Made in China" products had the same price as "Made in America" products, wouldn't you buy "Made in America?"


Totally agree.
