So then you’re saying they were stupid to engage in importing instead of other opportunities to reinvest their profits. Or not importing goods that were still competitive despite higher prices, like foreign luxury cars are today. By the way, I’m working on the research that’s going to disprove this whole contention that you and DiogenesLamp push on how importing and exporting was actually done, but it’s going to take a while. So you’ve got that to look forward to.
No I’m saying you are absolutely DESPERATE to have something....anything to throw at Southerners so you are trying all kinds of desperate ploys here.
Good luck with your research. You might as well search for Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster though because that is exactly how exporting and importing were done at that time so you’re not going to find what you’re looking for.
We shall see....
