The reason why ████████████25% "import tax" on China is more to do with how our people and businesses can't compete or survive. They are economically dumping (the economic term for selling cheap goods) goods on us, without even trying, which is disrupting and damaging our economy badly. Like Lalith Kahatapitiya told me, the Chinese finished goods, due to vast economies of scale, production specializations and Chinese gov't funding as owners, they are a lot cheaper than the raw materials at times, or cost of production for us or for many smaller countries as well.
