ok
there's literally nothing wrong with trade
yes when your economy
is dependent
on it
they cant function without it
who gave me this nick lmao
nazberg fag
trade should be more as a bonus, to make development faster, not possible
don't get me wrong I am against completely free trade because it destroys your own industry
nations should be able to develop on their own
trade should just speed things up
but it's wrong to say you shouldn't have it
not be an essential part
of an economy
its better to not trade at all than to be dependent on trade
the main thing a country should be not be reliant on in foreign trade is food
autarky is a crack dream for people who do not understand resource consumption in the developed world
no, not russia nor america can be autarkic
cause of consumerism
no those two CAN but there's no point to be
no idiot
america IS autarky right now
cope
because there are resources that america does not have
but needs
they have huge untapped land for practically everything
did not say you should never trade
first of all
there is no self relience
what i said you should not be dependent on trade
america gets various resources from foreign ports because it's simpler or cheaper w/e
for developing
you cant not be dependent
its impossible
but it doesn't mean they can't get it themselves
right now the US economy only has liek 8% foreign trade
north korea moment
and half of that is with mexico and canada
just look at happened in US after oil crisis, they bascially increased their oil production few times so now they import little oil
