>>>Protectionism isn't a free market philosophy.

Of course it isn't....
>>>No matter what, factory workers in China will always be cheaper than factory workers in America.

Maybe, but I remember the same comments being made about Japan....and South Korea for that matter.
>>>The only way to "equalize" that is via tariffs, but that is not a free market concept. Not by a longshot.

Who said it has to be "equalized?" Or, how is $100B vs $500B equalized? Seems to me that, if anything, we've allowed it to be over-equalized.
