What is the timestamp and context in the OP video?
Starts at about 11:00.
He's saying tariffs are bad and cause inflation.
Tariffs do not cause inflation, money printing causes inflation and deindustrialization causes money printing.
He also agrees our money pays the tariffs, but often the foreign industry will lower its prices to compensate, and if you buy domestic products the government doesn't get any tariff money.
He says the market can solve the problem, but it can't when the problem is slave labor and subsidization in tyrannical countries.
He says free trade is a moral issue when it supports slavery and tyranny.
He says we need to make the government live within its means even though buying slave labor produced and communist subsidized masks the market signals that might cause people to do something about it.
Free trade literally enables deficit spending and inflation because it robs foreign slaves and taxpayers to give a temporary perception of prosperity.
They talk about big corporations, big corporations LOVE Free Trade, they can afford to move to China to take advantage of slave labor while their smaller domestic competition cannot.
Free Trade creates giant globalist mega corporations and eliminates competition.
It also destroys the labor market by sending all the jobs overseas so they can reduce the wages they pay in all the remaining industries, and that wage loss is much bigger than any reduction in prices that comes from buying from slavers.
Free Trade is to the physical economy what the Federal Reserve is to the monetary system, a way for those with power and wealth to take an even bigger lion's share of future productivity and prevent anyone lower down from rising to compete with them.
Instead of a magic money machine it's a magic box to extract assets from without having to play by the same rules as those who have no access to it, especially those pesky rules about slavery and government subsidies.
It destroys independence, sovereignty, the political power of the average man, and liberty.
