if you can make doodad here for $5 but choose to make offshore at 1$ we need to charge an extra $4 tarrif to remove the lure to move the job of making the doodad offshore.

Thought we already did that with increased taxes when the company moves profits made overseas back into the country. As I understand the companies just invest their profits somewhere outside of the country to avoid the additional taxes, which just weakens us and strengthens the other country.

Not to mention, that if we did charge that extra tariff, it would only be reflected in the final cost of the product as the company would just raise the price and the consumers in the USA would pay more.
