Our (American) tariffs pose a great danger to foreign relations and small businesses within the United States. Without the ability to gather and maintain our own natural resources or to have the factories to produce our own products, we will slowly kill off industry that cannot afford to buy at tariff prices, and then subsequently sell that final product back at a much higher price.
