FAIR TRADE is easy to understand and sell.
Not “fair” but equitable trade. The fair trade movement is a socialist virtue signaling scheme
Balanced Trade is another way to do it.
For example, there are 3 options of thought on where the numbers ought to be on our trade with China.
Option 1: USA exports 600B to China, China exports 200B to USA
Option 2: USA exports 600B to China, China exports 600B to USA
Option 3: USA exports 200B to China, China exports 600B to USA
The extremists go for Option 1 or Option 3 while the moderates and balanced-thinking fair-minded people go for Option 2. The current status quo is Option 3, its why tens of thousands of factories have closed in the USA, and its why so many rural communities are very devastated & millions underemployed on opioids/welfare and us having a huge national debt.
Yes, and the reason I really liked Duncan Hunter, but he failed to sell it. Trump is selling it and the GOP just doesn’t get it.
