If US companies insist on buying Vietnamese Steel or Chinese steel sent via Vietnam, because it's cheaper. Putting American steel making companies out of business, workers on welfare and whole areas out in the cold. Then they have to expect an American Government to slap a tariff on the cheap steel to pay for the extra costs the American government have.
This tariff will end up with consumers paying more. For which the same rules apply. If you want cheaper goods made by cheap overseas labour, expect to pay more in buying those goods to cover the costs of your government.
One day it might be your job on the line.
