Show of hands, fellow Democrats. How many of you would choose to let your job go overseas?

37. Are you arguing that the Euro Right does not favor high tariffs? Or that teabaggers do not

support protectionism? Or is this all about me? In lieu of an answer, I will await another accusation.

Yes, I have received positive feedback here, but not nearly as much as negative. That's OK. I post what I believe; just as you do. That's what DU is all about.

As for your judgment that my economics is 'radical right wing', well consider that FDR was the one who lowered tariffs in the 1930's to undo the high republican tariffs of the '20's and he pushed for low tariffs and multilateral governance of trade in the postwar years. (Was FDR guilty of "radical right wing economics" for his pursuit of low tariffs?) Also progressive countries in the world employ these same economic policies that FDR promoted, while the real 'radical right' in Europe and the US - well you know the rest.

If that makes the trade policy that FDR promoted and Sweden uses today "radical right wing" economics, you are welcome to your definition, I suppose.
