How long have you been contracting?

You don't consider something in a situation where something is explicitly being considered?

You're a bit thick aren't you.

Yes, she's thick. You're clearly a genius. I wonder why more of us don't understand that.

How did your frantic googling go the other day sas?

What frantic googling was that, boy?

Well i asked you how on earth protectionism could strengthen an economy and you went very quiet, so i presumed you'd gone away to find some other idiot on the internet that agrees and use their own completely flawed arguments.

I'm flattered that you see me as the font of all wisdom but I really think
you should do you own research. Anyway good luck for the future, youll need it. Over and out.

No research is required on my behalf because i know you're wrong. In fact i've never seen quite such a retarded argument in my life.

Just curious if you'd ever admit it yourself.

Could you explain your argument to us again please?

That protectionism doesn't work?

Protectionism is one of the most rejected economic ideas going, for reasons far too obvious to need to explain.

Thus the onus is really on the believer of protectionism to explain why it does work, much like the onus would be on a believer that the world is flat to explain why his theory is correct.

Rejected by whom? The people who run up trillion £/$ debts, or companies that outsource everything to make the most profits while getting the side effect of the locals not being able to afford their products or those that import cheap labour meaning welfare bill goes through the roof. Causality.
