I have learned form a lot of Free Freepers that a “true conservative” cannot consider patriotism or putting “America First” when it comes to economic matters. It doesn’t matter how detrimental unfettered trade and offshoring have been. You are not to take into consideration your nationality when making economic decision. GloBULLism and international corporations come first last and always and have priority, a true conservative a stateless being when things economic are in play. Any attempt at promoting protectionism, like our founders did in the beginning, is to be treated with disdain.
Well, those folks are full-on bastards of humanity.
It is true, that economic theology has been taught as a “me,me,me” progressivism for the last 80 years.
True conservatism and individual capitalism have been distant brothers, for at least one day, everyday- forever.
