'Fair' is irrelevant, an excuse at best - they will do whatever is advantageous. They didn't roll back protections for any of their other industries, and they won't for this one, either.
- danbolt 9y agoWell, yeah, of course it happens at an advantage. Most other nations do too though, right? The United States has had trade protections for its industries before, so it strikes me as understandable for a nation to manage their growth that way.
- DarkKomunalec 9y agoNations have done far worse than trade protections to help their prosperity, so it's very understandable. What's less understandable are the calls of "We live in a globalized world, that's just how things work now!" when Western nations try the same.
