BTW, if you have ever read anything I've ever written, you wouldn't say the following: "Why don't you call to remove all government regulation on business since it is in conflict with your premise that individuals can creat sic their own value (without the help of government)."

Do your research, before you accuse.

Why don't you call to remove all government regulation on business since it is in conflict with your premise that individuals can creat sic their own value (without the help of government)."

This is a question not an accusation. Isn't the idea that the government insures overseas investments for diane feinstein and corporations in conflict with your statement that individual can create their own value without the help of goernment? Or do you think the government should be insuring Diane Feinsteins investments?

I have often in the past called for removal of government regulation of business I ahve in the past proposed enterprise zones with minimum regulation and no corporate income tax on the results of American production. These are positive measure I have encouraged. In regards to removing regulation from American buisiness I would be more than happy with that as it si a good start towards competitiveness but it does not erase Chinese tariffs and non tariff restrictions on US exports to that nation. It does not address strategic defense industries offshoring that we can not afford as a nation.

Now if you would like to discuss how to remove all regulation I will be happy to discuss the political feasability of same. If you would like to see Free Markte pronciples as defined by Adam Smith in wealth of nations implemented that is what I support. If you are talking about maintaining ghovernment subsidies for offshore investing (see OPIC) or supporting trade barriers to American products then I will ar against what you propose. If you want to get into a "turd throwing contest I shall abjure.

Now as to your statement that tariffs are Marxist that has been throughly refuted and other than your continuing allegation there is no support for that position as it predates marxism by years. Karl Marx has specifically opposed tariffs as did Stalin and Lenin.
