Prices would go up on things people don't need. They would stop buying them and would be better off.
There may be short-term increases on food and fuel, but they wouldn't last, and maybe people will turn to healthier locally source foods than the processed crap coming from overseas.
I looked at a package of peaches recently that were grown in Central America and packaged in Asia. Explain to me how that's better than peaches grown in the US. Sounds more like a subsidy to me.
