    Wow your ignorance is astonishing, not long ago you said that free trade is the best system which I agree with but here you are arguing that tariffs are good. Tariff's are the complete opposite of free trade.

    An importing company has to make a profit, they import an item that cost say $100 put say 10% margin on it and sell for $110. Now you put a 20% tariff on it there cost is now $120, they can't sell it for $110 any more because they would make a loss. To maintain a profit margin of 10% they have to sell for $132 so it's the consumer that is paying the tariff

    "When you want higher Taxes it only means the p[rice of goods and services has to increase, it's why the cost of things is so high in Australia, high taxes increase prices."

    LOL do you understand that a tariff is a tax on imports
