I understand Ron Paul speaks his ideas as if we were living in his libertarian utopian world. But the reality is we don't live in that world. And communist China would love to decimate our manufacturing industry and for us to be totally reliant on them.
Is it a good idea for us to be totally reliant on communist China? I don't think so. Tariffs are perhaps the least harmful approach to the issue.
Ron has spoken in favor of tariffs as an alternative to funding the government. Obviously, in Ron Paul's ideal world, we would be in a much better position if we had sound money, no income tax, no wars, and limited government with no social programs, but again, we don't live in that world.
