Little progress can be made
by merely attempting to repress what is evil;
our great hope lies in developing what is good.
Calvin Coolidge
From the New Blog:
A brief note to readers that familiar with my Facebook format conventions: I use blue fonts for OP commentary, purple (also dark green or brown for other commentators) with a comment that I typically don't agree with, and red font (of course) to correct or expand on
On FB, a Russian troll uggests Trump's strategy over his unconstitutional tariffs:
He is fighting the labour and production outsourcing to the low labour cost countries. The idea is to close the production cost gap so the employers stop outsourcing and start employing localy
You realize that mercantilists have been spreading that bullshit for centuries --about 90% of job losses have to do with improvements in technology. Trump is simply another corrupt bastard who lusts for power like Putin.
