Brian Westbury , a free market economist, says tariffs won't be a winner in an industry that might be winning here.

Westbury says he loves the Trump agenda of reducing the size of government, reducing regulations and reducing regulations.

But he says the way you fix it isn't necessarily finishing other producers. You we need to cut taxes on corporations, cut regulations and start producing more here. And I think that's what we really should be focusing on. We have a plan to get the deficit down, but Social Security and Medicare are a serious problem.
