Pointing out dishonesty is the literal opposite of sophistry

You do realize prior to 1913 we were completely funded by tariffs right? Both dems and republicans, right?

This isnt 1913. The economy is totally different and trade is much less a zero sum game than it once was.

Trade is trade Roger. The economic forces are different but the trade is the same. You adjust for trade imbalances. This is economics 101.

Do you think trade has a winner and loser? Or do you think both sides can win?

For the last 50 years? Yep.
Do you think there is way to equalize trade imbalances (winners or losers)?

Then why would both parties engage in trade if one will lose? Wouldnt one party just not make that deal?

A big portion of our 37T dollar debt is part of our government excepting “the deal”. The big boys in DC getting kick backs and the rest of us paying for it in more ways than one. That time is over.
Roger have you ever owned, operated, or managed a private business?

Communism. Make everyone poor and trade will be more equal, too.

Oh yeah! There it is. So equalizing trade imbalances through trade measure such as tarrifs is now communism. Please share with the class how you came to that conclusion. I can not wait for this response.

We are. You may not be.

Uh, no.
Nice strawman, though.
The simple point went over your head, so I'll break it down for the level of a child.
Rich countries will have negative trade imbalances because they have more money to spend on goods from abroad.
Poor countries will have positive trade balances because they're poor and will be more likely to be exporters who can't afford expensive goods.
If you want to "fix" things, you need communism. That makes everyone poor. No more rich countries = fewer trade imbalances.

Oh My ........ now I understand why they say those things about you.

If you want SFP to engage with you, you have to first find something that interests him.
Ask if him of the FBI was right to break into Mar a Lago to sniff Baron’s boxers.

I'm pretty sure I know where he stands on that.
