Markets shrink and collapse, businesses and industries shut down, and millions of people lose their jobs.
The memory of all this occurring back in the 30s made me determined when I came to Washington to spare the American people the protectionist legislation that destroys prosperity.
Now, it hasn't always been easy.
There are those in the Congress, just as there were back in the 30s, who want to go for the quick political advantage, who risk America's prosperity for the sake of a short-term appeal to some special interest group who forget that more than 5 million American jobs are directly tied to the foreign export business and additional millions are tied to imports.
Well, I've never forgotten those jobs.
And on trade issues, by and large, we've done well.
When someone says, let's impose tariffs on foreign imports.
It looks like they're doing the patriotic thing by protecting American products and jobs.
And sometimes for a short while it works, but only for a short time.
But over the long run, such trade barriers hurt every American worker and consumer.
High tariffs inevitably lead to retaliation by foreign countries and the triggering of fierce trade wars.
Then the worst happens.
Markets shrink and collapse, businesses and industries shut down, and millions of people lose their jobs.
Throughout the world, there's a growing realization that the weight of prosperity for all nations is rejecting protectionist legislation and promoting fair and free competition.
America's jobs and growth are at stake.
