You are mistaken. Sorry.
And if it matters I do this for a living, and you’re no one.

It’s econ 101 it’s not econ 560.
If I had the knowledge to restore us steel production or video screens I would do it.
Our market is more valuable than their deprivation of it can tolerate.
Just is.

It’s already happening. For an easy example, look what’s happening to indian tech labor… Very few things are pure commodities. There are trade offs. Those costs are included.

That’s not the point Peter. The point is that tariffs incentivize domestic production. So a Tariff is the cost of the incentive necessary to repatriate an industry. And it’s rational because any POSSIBLE domestic production that was offshored was a game of labor arbitrage that lowered wages – thus privatizing the public commons: which is of course, theft.

Why do you assume I don’t know these folks and they know me?
The real reason is because my work is too challenging for all but a few on the right. I don’t do philosophy really, I do science and scientific epistemology applied to law constitution and policy. These folks all want moral vindication.
Despite my efforts the right remains anti-intellectual. 🙁

Almost anything I post can be found by use of google image search for images or google search for text.
I use either –“”– for quotes or ~~””~~ for paraphrases of quotable text.
I only quote my own authorship if it’s ‘from elsewhere’.

Brad turned my poor brain to mushy oatmeal working today. (Reality: I didn’t take enough notes last weekend, and we ended with some complex changes mid-way through. So it took over an hour to reconstruct our work for today. That said we managed to bring harpending, todd, and hackett into the discourse, and lay out the next chapter.). So I like to blame nonsense on Brad (though he really is a slave driver) whenever possible -which our staff knows is always BS. It’s part of the fun. 😉

Modern economies cannot function without fiat money, fiat credit, and some variation on income taxes – which are, in reality, government commissions on creating the rule of law necessary for complex commercial production distribution and trade.
Would a flat tax be better with a much higher income required for reporting? Probably. There is no need to tax most of the working classes who produce something on the order of 3% of revenues.

I read papers and combine content into posts so others don’t need to.

If you mean who would persist? Just the real lefties. I think most would adapt. And that would be a good thing.
