Economists sometimes say something banal that does not seem to require much economic education or business experience, but only a little reflection on individual stimuli. Let me do it.
What will happen if foreign companies or foreign factories of American companies cannot sell their goods in America without constantly being hit by whimsical American rates and threats, a month, the following month, and up again? Will they move their production facilities to America? But then they will also know that they run the risk of being hit with whimsical American rates on their input. And they know that foreign states will often take revenge. Moreover, the legendary American market will have become much less attractive in these circumstances, because most people will be poorer, except for the government recordings.
The best idea for entrepreneurs can be to sit or move to a country that is still open to trade – or ideally a country that is unilaterally open to trade if such countries exist.
A silver lining would be that Americans and other people who were the victim of their own countries in the same way (‘use of’ by their own governments) would stop blindly trusting the state and the classic liberal and liberal and libertarian project to strictly limit the power and scope of their own Leviathhan.
Unfortunately it can also go the other way: the crowd could call to repair a new, more powerful strong man to repair the wall, run the trains on time and get it done. In fact, and taking into account the different forms that have taken authority and Leviathan, It has been like that In most of the world during most of the history of humanity.
There is certainly something worse than everyone in the world who wants to come to the country: it’s like nobody wants to.
