see post # 348 dfor a staring of name calling. Then see him defend OPIC as the leaast the government can give corporations a subsidfy giving something of value to encourage investment overseas. Please tell me who is talking subsidies.

Hey Poohbah subsidies are Socialist at least and may well be Marxist. Even LS doesn't like Subsidies and neitehr do I.

I am presuming for your discussion of railrod subsidies and how counter productive they are you do not support any government interfereing in the Free market with subsidies. Most especially I presume you do not support interfering with the normal allocation of Capital investment with subsidies.

My saying that maui_hawaii's economic analysis--one that assumes decreased supply and increased demand, but concludes that prices would not increase--is "laughably Marxist" is name-calling, but your referring to those who disagree with your stance on tariffs as "Free Traitors" isn't.

Thanks for the laugh.

Harp, you are getting repetitions, and either you are deliberately obtuse, or (a worse alternative) cannot read what I have written, repeatedly: I do not support government subsidies for ANYTHING except clear cases of national defense (i.e., if, for example, Boeing could no longer compete in passenger aircraft, I would support subsidizing Boeing).
