America's government was primarily funded by tariffs during our fastest growth period through the 18th and 19th centuries, our own history shows that tariffs are very good for building our own industries.
You trust any numbers produced by a totalitarian dictatorship?
I trust the experts analyzing these things, yes, and the satellite imagery they use as part of their work
The world is very different from when America had tariffs, and the results are not as rosy as you paint, don't forget we were the ones stealing intellectual property back then from Europe
