Great thread on why Trump's tariffs and attacks on U.S. institutions is idiocy of historic proportions.
It is difficult to convey how monumentally idiotic Trump’s tariffs are.

Allow me to try.

Let’s begin with Adam Smith.

In the 200 years prior to Smith’s 1776 “Wealth of Nations” Mercantilism was the dominant view of trade.

@mikeduncan.bsky.social hello sir, since I discovered your shows about two years ago, I just need to ask (sorry if you are sick of it after all those years). Will there ever be another commented trip to Rome? :) thanks!
