We protectionists think open markets, free trade and income taxes are also legitimate economic policy albeit very destructive. We are saying both are viable we just disagree as to which one is the better system.
On the OTH you called protectionists economic illiterates and stupid when free trade relies on budget deficits, ever increasing income taxes and imbalanced trade. Well we've seen what Free Traitors™ have done to this once great country so go pack sand. Your day has passed and good riddance.
Go Trump, go!
Ass munches?
Seriously?
Dude, you and protectionist buddy Puny need to get out of the 1800s.
Contrary to your delusions, free trade has NOTHING to do with budget deficits, they’re a function of profligate government spending, which is not a function of private trade, free or not.
Free trade has NOTHING to do with income taxes, “ever increasing” or not.
Free trade has NOTHING to do with “imbalanced trade” there really is no such thing. I already explained the accounting identity in our balance of payments.
You and Puny seem to be impervious to facts. Must be fun to imagine that you’re living in the 1800s.
