Telling people who they can do business with and how they can do business is socialism on steroids

So when the founders of the United States maintained tariffs to protect our domestic industry, they were communists?

I begin to wonder whether you're quite serious, or simply doing a send-up of the typical free-traitor attitudes!

No, but that was 200 years ago and we weren't quite up to competition. Are you saying the US needs a few Mulligans in order to compete? Are yous saying we're not good enough?

You want the American taxpayer to suppliment some company because they weren't able to compete against a foreign company unless they get "special privilages" (that reads US taxpayer welfare for them)
