It is YOU FREE TRAITORS that are the Marxist supporters!

Your quoting Marx saying that free trade is destructive, In case no one told you, Marx was an idiot. Furthermore, in that quote he is stating that free trade is destructive to the social order, by removing nationalism it would focus discord on the conflict he percieved between the bourgeiouse and proletariat. Like I said, he was an idiot...

But look at how every Marxist society has flourished.

Marxist governments need to impose tariffs because they cannot manufacture enough to support themselves, but he would never admit that. Marxist governments also need other nations to remove tariffs because they would not be able to pay those either, for what few things they were able to make.

So the socialists managed to get the West to remove tariffs on the hare-brained notion that "free trade" was somehow pro-Western, even though it violated every economic practice and historical precedent the West had.

Read his quote again, also read post #74

Free Trade IS a destroyer of economies, and THAT was why Marx liked it, not because he thought it was a good thing to do, but a good thing because it brought about revolution.

Well I quoted Adam Smith back in reply #35 of this thread.
Rather than repost the whole thing, I can repeat the pertinent portion for you:

"... cheaper foreign goods of the same kind might be poured so fast into the home market as to deprive all at once many thousands of our people of their ordinary employment and means of subsistence. The disorder which this would occasion might no doubt be very considerable...."

So how about that?
Karl Marx and Adam Smith agree!!!
