its just an elaborate government scam to stop people getting bargains from properly run countries, another way for them to justify a 6 figure salary and 5 houses all paid for by us.
I personally think that this tax and custom fees on imports is a good thing. I do not think it should apply to items sold by individuals and mom and pops, but if we had this in the states applied to all the imports we get from China.....there would be far less unemployed as we would have to buy are own stuff and build factories to make it. I know we have duty taxes at our ports...but those are not ****.
