My response is f “the general principles of economics” you so naively posted

That is all BS theory. In the real world no nation practices free trade except for us. That is why we have a 6000 billion dollar trade deficit. All other nations are protectionist and look out for their native workers and their native capitalists. They don’t play by your BS “citizen of the world” rules

You better hope Donald Trump does not get in because he is going to slap tariffs on Chinese craps so fast it will make your head spin. I’m hoping he imposes tariffs on foreign oil too and we make up for that by drilling more in the USA and burning more coal to make electricity. And shifting over to our native CNG for more transport uses.

” My response is f “the general principles of economics” “

You can always gauge the weakness of a person’s argument (and how insecure he/she is with that argument) by how quickly he/she resorts to profanity, bombast, and ad-hominem attacks....

Sorry, Dennis - you just went down a notch in my esteem.... (sigh)
