The economics of Free Trade can work. The problem is not that, but the POLITICIANS who don't know how to implement it.

The experiment in one sided free trade is a disaster.

So 'economists' ( I want to spit when I say that world) the middle class is supposed to die and we are supposed to embrace the coming socialism desperate people will seek from those same pols?

Like I keep saying. First the lawyers then the economists...

Do you know what an oxymoron is? You just wrote one. . . and exposed your utter ignorance of economics. There is no such thing as one-sided free trade.

Why do you insist on lumping all economists under "Marxist?" Marx was a very poor philosopher who had a very weak grasp of market economics when he used economics to cover up his philosophic ideas with an economic veneer with oor psychological underpinnings of the perfectibility of human nature. Milton Freedman, Adam Smith, Ludwig van Mises, and a host of other economists I could name found Marx's theories complete twaddle and those who lived after him said so.

You don't even know the context of the "The first thing we must do is kill all the lawyers," line. . . it's from Shakespeare's play Henry VI, where it's a line spoken by plotting bad guys who are planning a revolution and need to remove anyone who would stand between them and their overthrow of the protections built into the LAW, preventing them from seizing illegal power over the people!

As I said, you don't have even the inkling of an education about what you are spouting off about, calling for the assassinations of two entire professions based on your ignorant, demonstratively ill-informed and assumptive prejudices.
