Yes Walter, our founders were very stupid people.
Thanks...
Just remember this — During the time of our founders, we did not have such departments as the EPA, the Dept of Labor, minimum wage, National Labor Relations Board, The Income Tax, capital gains tax, employer health insurance, payroll taxes, etc, etc. etc.
Take all of those away and then we can have those tariffs that our so called “stupid” founders gave but not until.
Thanks.
I’d say there’s nothing wrong with free trade but if we get foreign things and they get an IOU, that’s not a good kind of trade. We should be doing jobs, making things, and shipping that to the foreign traders. We have unemployed workers and just export IOUs.
It never ceases to amaze me how Freepers, who are supposed to be conservatives, continue to trash serious conservative icons like Williams, Sowell, Rush, Levin, etc. -- people who have been passionate, thoughtful, articulate and reasoned advocates of conservatism for decades -- just because they disagree with Trump, who is arguably not a reliable conservative at all.
I don't know what it is with Trumpers, but their over-the-top nastiness is appalling.
Funny thing. Yesterday I posted a thread reporting on a comment by Rush, and it got 134 responses, most of which were full of bitterness for Rush. The funny part is that of the 134 responses, mostly from Trump supporters, almost all of the respondents proved that they either didn't read the actual article or else that they misunderstood the point if they did.
Honestly, when I read the comments from the usual gang of Trump supporters here, I see very little but blind, cult-like devotion. The bitterness against those who question or disagree with Trump on any issue is stunning, and is turning FR into a swamp like DU.
My point is, you can support Trump without being a vituperative, bitter, sarcastic pucker hole. Try it sometime.
DISCLOSURE: I voted for Cruz in the primary, but will certainly vote for Trump if he wins the nomination.
