If the day ever comes when it does actually become “treasonous” to believe in free markets, capitalism, and the right of an individual to make his own decision about what to do with his own money that he has earned?
I guess I will have a problem.
World history tells us some nations *have* tried this - the USSR, China, the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot, the various Soviet bloc nations, the national socialist nazis, etc... I’d have most certainly have found myself in a gulag or a ‘reeducation camp’ (or a worse camp) for expressing what I expressed in the first two sentences of this post.
I always if that awful day ever came to America? It would be the Dims naming me traitor.
You have what I call the Free Traitor™ mental defect. You cannot discern any difference from the markets inside the USA, call them domestic markets, and commerce between other countries. For some strange reason you see all of that as the same thing. What is even more perplexing is when our trading partners, a cute term that makes what are out and out cut throats sound so nice, practice unfair trading practices with the USA you still cannot discern any diiference between domestic and country to country. It is amazing. I call it the traitor gene. You have it. It can be deadly and cause severe neck injuries in wartime.
