and thats where implementing a hefty import tax would help resolve that problem
Perhaps somewhat, but it's better to be more streamlined here too.
It is better to be more streamlined here, however, a tax for no reason is not going to fly in the world economy (besides we already do that to all imports). What would fly is if we are going to import crap from other countries, they must meet the same environmental standards, minimum wage standards, and human rights agenda we do.
If they do not. It is a no go. Don't think our businesses will go out of business if we can not produce anything in China. We stop producing and importing from them, the Chinese go under and we flourish.
