    All 10 points in the above article are, in my opinion, valid only in the short term.
    And here comes cLyDeR to show Soykern that he knows even less about tariffs.

    Well played cLyDeR.

    You're way too stupid for this conversation. Go crawl back under your adult sized crib and put on another 2 masks.

    A halfwit can grow tomatoes, literally the easiest fruit a person grow. Why would we import tomatoes?

    Fresh-market tomatoes are produced in every state, with commercial-scale production in about 20 States. Florida edged out California as the largest producer, which is likely due to the ongoing drought in California where production has dropped in the last few years.
    Of course I don't eat raw tomatoes, because they taste like the smell of a fast food garbage can.

    Try getting off your ass and growing/canning some of your own food instead of relying on slaves.

    Avocados are a great one to use.They grow them in Florida and California. If Mexican avocados start being too pricey, that money instead will go to the domestic growers and they can expand their operations and grow in size. Hire more workers, help out the economy more. That is the point in tariffs. Yes, costs are passed to consumers, and that is the whole point, it makes domestic goods more attractive pricewise.

    You also don't have to worry about your food being grown in human feces, like they do in Mexico.

    Doesn't PETA release that every year since like 2000? I don't know when it actually happened, but it's not a new story.

    Also, I was going to correct your spelling.. it's "turkeys"... but then I looked up turkie on urban dictionary and you might be right.

    Because we have a lot of quarter wits.

    When did you first realize that you're a protectionist?
