Re: the arguments about “economic freedom”. People use the term “free trade” but I don’t think we ever see real free trade. Other countries put restrictions on US goods, while taking advantage of the American political which is riddled with whores and fools and traitors.
It is immoral to buy circuit boards from a country like Malaysia that employs literal human slaves to manufacture them.
We fought a civil war that ended slavery 150 years ago at the cost of 600,000 lives. Maybe we need another civil war to deal with the people who think that slavery in Malaysia is “economic freedom”.
“Free trade” people want a 2-tiered society... a handful of elites like George Soros and Mark Zuckerberg and a servant class of everyone else can just “service” the elites.

Trump & Sanders are doing well because more and more Americans realize this every day. Europe realized it a century ago, and while their answer is deeply flawed (and we are trying to duplicate it) people there expect a lot more from their elected officials. Not that they get it, but at least they’ll burn down buildings intended to house “refugees” and REALLY build walls.
Yeah....”slavery creates free trade” The irony is lost on so many.
We don’t have a free trade agreement with Malaysia.
