Conservatives for Central Planning

[TheTexan]

I acknowledge my addiction to reality, not necessarily to politics, whatever that's supposed to mean

Free Trade allows trade and the economy to be centrally planned by the international globalists.
Nationalist trade diversifies planning to take place in every nation instead.

Free Trade

Still trying to change the clear meaning of the term, just as though you haven't been corrected a thousand times.

Just like Democrats do.

No, I'm just ignoring the fantasy version just like I ignore "real communism" where everybody shares everything in a worldwide commune with no hierarchy.

Anything the federal government does is gonna be "central planning" by definition.

If you're against having a federal government at all, then great, just say that.

If you're not against have a federal government, then by definition, you're for some amount of central planning, which is fine too, but you don't really get to say it's not central planning because it is.

But the whole idea of being for or against "central planning", as a separate concept from government itself, is just stupid. It's a redundant term with ambiguous meaning, as demonstrated in this thread.

There's different levels of central planning. A flat tariff would be less central planning than selective tariffs.
