When a government refuses to properly use tariffs to protect American industry it is only a matter of time before high paying industrial jobs get shipped to low paying countries. Add to that our penchant for 'lowest price wins' (WalMart, anyone?) and you have a recipe for a nation devoid of manufacturing base. All examples of ridiculously high costs associated with biased 'free' trade. I went to buy a new flag before the 4th, and it took me a full day to find one 'Made in the USA'.
