Would you complain if your taxes were raised
Yes.

You lie. Congress voted down the wall and healthcare reform.

Writing is in the wall. Market starting to fall.

So unless we aren’t allowed to complain about our taxes, then it’s as legitimate of a complaint as any other tax.
Think of any tariffs as a tax created by unions or regulatory laws which increase the cost of doing business in the US.

Don’t earn an income, you don’t pay the income tax. Don’t buy anything, you don’t pay the sales tax. Don’t own property, you don’t pay the property taxes. I’m sure you are ok with all of the Ds tax plans (incomes, wealth, etc.) on the higher earners and wealthiest individuals, because they could just make less money or have less wealth.
None of these things are related to refraining from buying Chinese products. I'm sure you realize that, but maybe you don't.
You have a choice about the things that you buy. You make your choice, I'll make mine.
I won't be paying any tariffs on Chinese crap.
I am not going to claim that I have never bought any Chinese stuff,( I actually bought a Chinese made Epiphone Wildcat guitar a few days ago. I wish it had cost more money, and had been built in The U.S.. It would be a better product and would hold it's value better. Maybe Gibson will start building them here now, I would definitely pay triple the price, for a U.S. made one.) but it is damn rare that I do anything like that.
You do what you want though.

You know your party has worked diligently to stop President Trump from achieving his goals for the American people. Why can’t they forget party and all get on the same team and and do their fricking job working for the country. I’m sick of all this “get Trump” political BS

Basically the world is living off of the back of the American taxpayer and our government has allowed this to happen. Its pathetic and we are fricking idiots for paying taxes. The people that have been in Washington for years are fricking thieves.
