Mercantilist or Medieval?

No one outside the kook left understands this sectarian vocabulary. Just say Breitbart News or Trump supporters...all 60 plus million of them.

I love the word kook.

Just thought I'd update us all on public opinion about these tariffs now that we have the first survey data specifically on the recent raising of tariffs on imports from Canada: a whole 27% of Americans approve, 62% disapprove outright. Just wanted to further substantiate my point from before about how this is NOT actually a popular policy. And here's updated public opinion on the broader array of tariff policy.

Yes, I disapprove as well. Most any economist would. But where is your disapproval of Canadian tariffs?

If they cause other nations to change their behavior like Sweden and Germany we may have a world with little to no tariffs.
