I’ve never seen anyone take the angle of Trump’s tariff policy being anti-capitalist and I don’t understand why. He’s disrupting free trade which is a foundational aspect of a global capitalist economy, why isn’t his party mad about that?
Also this article was fucking terrible
Idk- from by (basic) understanding of capitalism, once the market is saturated you need a spacial fix in order to keep extracting profit.
I think free trade would benefit capitalist economies since it would allow for easier expansion into new markets. Correct me if I’m wrong though cause I don’t know that much about economics and theory behind all this
