<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1441965, member: 26302&quot;]I don&#039;t disagree one iota with tariffs if foreign nations are &quot;cheating&quot;. If China pirates our stuff, then every single item imported from China should have a major tariff imposed to compensate our firms lost sales. </p><p><br /></p><p>However, you cannot look at the total picture of GM and say foreign firms are cheating. GM is just way too inefficient, work rules and old benefit promises are just way too costly for it to be a decent producer. If Toyota is not &quot;cheating&quot;, and is fairly competing with our firms and our firms lose, then we should not take my, yours, and every taxpayers money to help them unfairly compete. Where does it stop? Why doesn&#039;t every company in the US not get bailed out if they are failing? </p><p><br /></p><p>I do strongly believe we really should impose massive tariffs on India and China. Not just because our firms suck, but India steals our patented medicine freely, and China basically ignoring patents and copyrights and blantantly violates all laws in this category. To not impose massive tariffs on Chinese goods to compensate movie studios, engineering firms, etc. for this massive global theft is just wrong. Equally wrong, though, is giving taxpayer funds to massively inefficient and poorly managed firms in the US.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just my opinion.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
