Free trade does not exist in a vacuum, you know.Free trade has never existed. Ever. It does not know nor has it ever since the first government/king/lord etc came to power.

Free trade exists. And it existed the last time I paid somebody $40 to remove an old doghouse from my property.
I understand your point that "free" trade does not exist between countries. But "never" is a strong word.

Free trade has never existed. Ever. It does not know nor has it ever since the first government/king/lord etc came to power. We approached it in the late nineteenth century up till WWI. Interestingly enough, it coincided with the classical gold standard.
And even if it never existed as you say, it is still a goal we should seek. Governments/kings/lords notwithstanding.
