    When did you start supporting slave and child labor and the pollution caused by transport of foreign made/grown materials over American labor and a cleaner environment?

    Weird. Doesn't Trudeau know that Americans just pay the tariffs and everything goes on like normal?

    I love that you act like that's a bad thing.

    During the adult lives of every person in this forum, the Republican Party has strongly, openly and stubbornly opposed protectionism, until Trump came along. That's partly been true for the Democratic Party. In fact, calls for "free trade" grew louder and louder from around the 1930s until reaching a high point during the presidencies of Reagan, who proposed NAFTA, and Clinton, who brought it to fruition. During this period, international demographic changes weakened the political clout of labor unions, which supported protectionism, to the point that they were ineffective. Reversing international demographic changes today point toward a tighter labor market in the U.S. As a consequence, labor union influence should regain its former power. Perhaps Trump's tariff stance is a leading indicator.

    Protectionism is the purposeful stifling of competition. In the short run, it can protect threatened industries. In the long run, it slows innovation, limits consumer choices and increases consumer prices.

    Actkuly, many of us, who were alive during the starting of NAFTA, were opposed to it because we knew what would happen and amazingly, it has. I am not hugely for protectionism, I AM for equal and reciprocal tariffs for those who are are competitors and who are hurting us as a nation due to unequal tariffs and trade practices.

    When Canada can sell dairy products in the US at less than then their cost of production because their government props them up, that's a problem. When we can't sell rice in Japan because of insane tariffs, that's a problem. Americans will meet and beat almost any other producer in the world, IF you get the hidden finger off the scale. When we can't produce our own minerals because the cost of regulation and enviro-whacko lawsuits, but you can buy diamonds mined by slave kids, lithium mined by 12 yr olds and so on in countries with no regulation, fuck that.

    For all the cries about environmentalism the Left is such hypocrites by arguing for sending work overseas where it's done by slave kids in some of the most polluted places on the planet all so the Left can say "Hey look, the air and water in the US is clean, we did such a great thing.

    Fuck off.

    OH and the Democrats were big on selling it all too.

    What are you talking about?

    I wrote in Perot specifically because I knew NAFTA would do what it has done, it was the first time I ever voted Republican.

    I'm still a classic liberal, you people are liberal in name only. I want people to own fully auto weapons, say whatever the fuck they want and despise any war where our homeland hasn't been attacked. I basically have the same political ideology as Hunter S. Thompson.



    Also, Lugers are complete trash, though, they look cool AF.
