International trade is political by default. Trade is one of the most politically charged human endeavors that there is. It’s always been that and will always be that way. Only ivory tower nutty professors try to separate politics from economics which IMO does their charges a great disservice.

The Whites are the new Jews. The same phrases, terms, ans slogans that were being used against the Jews are being used against us,You are an intelligent individual. If you know your history, you can figure out the rest.

Watch the program...... you’ll see how the traders deal with the intricate web of different laws in different places.

It’s what they do.

My parents raised 3 kids and took vacations every year on one income. During that time I believe trade was less than 4% of the entire economy(GNP), there was little debt too. The USA made it's own stuff, imported little and was very prosperous indeed.

OTH I have never really taken an official vacation in my life.

Ask yourself, what's changed?

Chip by chip. This sounds like a judge we should have. How far are patriots going to let this go? Until our iPhones won’t work for us? Until the sports teams totally despise us? Movies mock us? Neither political represent us? Trump is all by himself.

-—what’s changed?——

The whole world.

The American era you speak of is anomaly. The world was in tatters after the WW II. The tatters have been repaired......watch the program. See what’s the present reality.

Yep. But watching them destroying property because they don’t like what it represents reminded of nothing so much as Krystallnacht.

Exactly. If they thought they could get away with putting armbands on us, they would.

But, generally speaking, the Protective system in these days is conservative, while the Free Trade system works destructively. It breaks up old nationalities and carries antagonism of proletariat and bourgeoisie to the uttermost point. In a word, the Free Trade system hastens the Social Revolution. In this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, I am in favor of Free Trade.

-- Karl Marx

Somehow you fail to grasp that the year is 2017. You are firmly stuck in the distant past where your tired old never accepted ideas gather dust

“Those who control the present, control the past and those who control the past control the future.”

George Orwell, "1984"

Much of our current troubles stem from events in the 19th century. Government grew immensely under the powers given it during the Civil War, and it never went back the other way. It grew again under Wilson, and grew even more under Roosevelt.

If you don't think the past affects the present, than you are naive.

assuming the Judge was elected by the public and not placed in service by the Magistrate, I’m wondering what his constituents are saying about this.

No, no, no..... I have a deep respect for history.

However living in a very old and deep rut prevents living in the world , a changed world, out side that rut.

The challenge for conservatives is to determine what change to embrace.

What is “controversial” about what wrote? He expressed the truth.

I see that some of the discussion between you and central_va is about trade and protectionism. For much of my life I hadn't given much thought to this issue, because I was not deeply involved in trade other than buying goods sold in stores locally.

But back in 1996, when Patrick Buchanan was running for the Nomination, he made a point which has stuck with me since then.

He said something to the effect that: "American companies have to comply with all sorts of mandates placed upon them by the Federal and State governments in this country. They have wage standards, they have safety standards, they have pollution standards, they have to pay taxes and fees in this nation. Foreign competition often has none of these same burdens to carry when manufacturing their products.

The United States should have a policy of reciprocity in which only those foreign companies which match US burdens on business should be allowed to import with low tariff fees. Those which do not meet US standards for protection of their labor and such, should be facing a higher tariff to import products into this country.

This would serve the purpose of making foreign companies compete on a more equal footing with American workers. It would remove some of the advantageous foreign companies have in not having to comply with US and State laws and regulations in this nation.

I have yet to see a flaw in his argument. Do you see one?

No flaw that I can see. I would add that you could theoretical remove all taxes and regulations in the USA and Americans could never compete with 3rd world labor rates. So their must be a tariff, or de industrialize and become China’s bitch.

As wages decline, the effect becomes closer and closer to slavery. Are Americans content to buy products from a system that is not so far away from slavery?

Apparently so.
