Without all wages going up how is anyone going to afford these no existent American made products. The last time the US hit China as stated and stopped buying Soybeans from the US the US government had to give farmer $18 billion to keep them from going under. That money was our tax money that should never have been needed to prop up farmers. On top of all this we would not have enough workers to fill half the new jobs that would come back to America.
