Bullcrap. Obama is no proponent of free trade. This entire article mixes micro and macro economic concepts to the point where policy conclusions are impossible from it.

I’d be interested in hearing why you don’t consider Obama a free trader Is he pushing for tariffs? I’d also be very interested in hearing why you see this an incorrect mix of micro and macro. Be as specific as you can in terms of theory. If you did not already see “The Unraveling of Economics”, it is the detailed analysis. I hope to post the link tomorrow to see what falls out. I’m definitely looking for critique to help simplify and clarify my model. thank you
