Just the same, you're not refuting the facts, merely smearing the source.

I noticed that you didn't "refute" the "fact" that 25 countries imposed tariffs in response to Smoot-Hawley. Increased tariffs overseas virtually shut down exports.

Yeah, 25 countries with conflicting policies that stifled capital flow and investment no matter what they did.

A stituation Europe didn't seriously address until the formation of the European Union some 60-70 years later!

What'sa matter, bozo? Not even familiar with your globalist justifications for European "harmonization" of regulations and tariffs?

Blaming America and Smoot-Hawley for Europe's woes back in the '30s is a crock.
