You're just parsing...a trait of a well-known liberal.

You claim to be a conservative, which means standing for smaller, less intrusive government, but you advocate protectionism, which means bigger, more intrusive government.

In America, Ronald Reagan stood for conservatism...and free trade.

I know...you were for free trade, before you were against it.

Explain to Harley Davidson that Reagan was for free trade. Just the opposite, tariffs saved their a*s.

I am tutoring you for free. BTW, what meaning of the word "liberal" did you use in the phrase above? In the classic sense or as the liberality/largesse?

Either way, this lesson is free.
