For the PEOPLE

 

When I was growing up in the 1960s in Alexandria, Virginia, I remember one of the reasons I supported Kennedy and the Democratic Party was because they were the PARTY FOR LABOR or THE WORKING PERSON.

The Republicans represented the wealthy and those who owned the companies and employed labor and treated this like crap.

Ironically, that concept has changed and now Republicans are for the working person and the Democrats represent the wealthy and social elites like Hollywood and other celebrities.

Ever since 1950, ALL PRESIDENTS have allowed other countries to put tariffs on US goods because US goods were superior and citizens of those countries would pay the extra charge to have quality.

Those tariffs benefitted only other countries and helped their economies because foreign goods into the US had no tariffs to help OUR COUNTRY.

Trump wants to change that and start putting tariffs on all foreign goods just like they put tariffs on our goods.  

The result is that the increased revenues from those tariffs would help AMERICANS more than it would HURT AMERICANS...  but, it is something NEW and we don't like change.
