Free trade is great, to a point. But you can’t base a national economy on cheap imports paid for by increasing debt, a super-wealthy elite, and welfare for the masses.
Have they considered that Trump might not “end” foreign trade? He might just adjust it.
If anyone thinks that a non-working welfare class in the USA is healthy, look at Charlotte last night. People with good, meaningful jobs don’t spend their evening rioting and burning.
Btw, your argument is from the pages of Marx. He thought "free trade" would leas to social unrest.
Good point about Charlotte, but let’s be realistic. Most of the jobs those people are capable of doing are being automated out of existence, and it has nothing to do with trade policy.
