Benefit scrounging parasites from Europe

There are no facts here, just a few vague statements. I have already debunked your US "fact", i have already explained the futility of me debunking the rest to you because you will simply ignore it and throw a few more vague "facts" at me.



You were the one that suggested the consumers of steel weren't bankrupt after WWII. I am just pointing out to you that the US was the main consumer, and they weren't in a strong financial position after the war, thus the example is stupid.

He is a tad on the Tedious side

Sorry I missed that. Which fact was it that you debunked, precisely?

By consumers of steel, I mean the many private companies that used steel as a raw product.
I think you ought to write a paper about the bankruptcy of the US government after the war, it'll certainly be news to many professional historians.

You read it remember. Then you tried to talk about Japan S.Korea because you realised you had no counter argument.

You know, about how the US was a very isolated economy naturally, because it's large, had every major resource and was a long way from other economies and thus tariffs made little difference. And that actually the US is a good example of liberal trade working because the commerce clause prohibits interstate tariffs....

Ok l'll grant you that.
What about the oither countries I mentioned. None of the above applies to them.

Cured that.

Isn't the ignore list a wonderful thing?

I don't really know a lot about the Japanese etc economy post WWII other than it was a staging base for the Korean War. So i can't really comment unless you let me google it, but then you'll just accuse me of googling it.

Trade restrictions won't have been the reason though, because restricting trade is detrimental to your economy.

You see that's the problem. You've made this statement and it's your fixed position.
Every fact will be made to shoehorn into that belief regardless of the evidence against it.
Economics isn't a hard science, it's a social science, and blanket statements are almost certianly wrong, since
the way masses of people behave and what works economically varies from time to time, from what level of economic development you are and from culture to culture.
