That's probably true.

So yes import tariffs don't work, but they don't work because they squeeze the American consumer instead of squeezing the foreign producer.

I don't know where the idea comes from that you can squeeze producers especially from China. China doesn't make high margin goods, they have cutthroat competition on very ordinary products.

A $1000 champagne bottle from France might be different but that's not the bulk of the imports.
