Interesting opinion by Pat Buchanan, showing that historically, tariffs helped the US economy.
Personally, I support implicit tariffs via Import Certificates.
Thom Hartmann recommends the economist Ha-Joon Chang's book "Bad Samaritans: The Myth of Free Trade and the Secret History of Capitalism'", which shows that all current "industrial"/"developed" rich economies, including the US, did so by using tariffs to protect their "infant industries" until they become rich economies.
