and make innovation reliant on the govt having cash

Protectionism is subsidizing uncompetitive industries on the global scale at expense to the consumer, which means consumers have less to reinvest in the economy as a whole.

There's a reason why no economist today worth his weight in salt likes protectionism.

Unless it's strategic it is always a bad idea long term.

It's not meant to be long term

Protectionism does not mean the short term leveraging of competitive tariffs in order to get beneficial trade deals. Trump isn't a protectionist.

Tariffs until we can net export and can make our businesses superior

Businesses "superior"?

A trade deficit is not a bad thing.

It's just a sign of an advanced service economy.

Why would a service economy be producing its own goods?

Any nation should be able to produce it's own goods

You're asking for something impossible and paradoxical. If you used protectionism to bolster industry and make your country self-sufficient as soon as you got rid of those tariffs the industry would immediately flee the country.

This is some serious low IQ stuff.

It's not a matter of industries being weaker, it's a matter of them being uncompetitive due to worker conditions and/or raw resource access.

More often than not the former in today's world.

Protectionism should be used in the case of unfair trade deals tho

Yeah, then it isn't protectionism.

Or where other companies are taking advantage of our companies

What Trump is doing is pushing for free trade with the EU and the erasure of Marshall Aid trade deals.

How do you take account of which companies are being taken advantage of?

I've bamboozled myself, i gotta do some more research

You should do more research on your fictional narrative of Slavic history.

There are some policies which are economically disadvantageous but are needed strategically or on principal though.

@εïз irma εïз sh

@εïз irma εïз Im doing it on purpose to make fun of aryan supremacists

Many of those here?

ive seen a few

although there are some "natsocs" who "are not aryan supremacists"

Evola critisized the Nazis for being too racially materialist.

shut up negroid

Libertarians are so cringey

And not worth entertaining

They are the right wing equivalent to braindead Marxists

Just shame them and move on

i honestly feel a little dirty knowing that i used to think maximum personal liberty would just somehow solve all our problems

it pretty clearly fucking doesn't

also Marxists invented libertarianism hence why all libertarians either adapt to Corporatism/Fascism like smart people or become egoists

@CrowGoCaw
I would argue that classical liberalism properly conceived is the extension of the divine right of kings to the individual and that it's the divinity of the true self beyond materialism that implies Natural Law as a logical consequence of experiencing reality from the focal point of consciousness. Democracy was a form of soft communism which was kept in check by classical liberalism, but which did not create the incentives necessary to maintain the classical liberal order which had a particular theological and historic basis.

@oscar Liberalism is an early left wing ideology to counter reactionary monarchists and oligarch republicans. Libertarianism is a marxist term before being taken by Rothbard

they are of two different breeds
