Am I right?quantumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06868555718580374974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26981669.post-27501290162020604002012-07-22T07:26:40.902-05:002012-07-22T07:26:40.902-05:00Another instructive article: The Case Against “Mad...Another instructive article: <a href="http://reason.com/archives/2012/07/22/the-case-against-made-in-the-usa" rel="nofollow">The Case Against “Made in the U.S.A.”</a><br /><br /><i>What is an export? What is an import? These words are defined in reference to political boundaries of only one kind: national boundaries. If there were no such boundaries, there would be no exports or imports. But political boundaries are just that. They are not economic boundaries. To the extent that they can, people go about their business as though those boundaries weren’t there. People cross the Canadian-American and Mexican-American borders to transact business every day. If they give them a thought it is only because governments put up barriers patrolled my armed guards who make them wait in line. People learn early in life that they can gain immensely from trade, and with that understanding comes the insight that it doesn’t much matter on which side of a Rand-McNally line your trading partner lives.<br /><br />So the very concepts imports and exports are founded on an arbitrary construct that has little practical consequence for people’s economic activities. Back in the 1980s, when neomercantilists feared Japan’s economic success at selling us stuff (seems a little crazy now, no?), I used to ask what would happen to the trade deficit if Japan were made the 51st state. Obviously, the deficit would have disappeared because we don’t reckon trade imbalances between states. Why not?<br /><br />In reality there are no imports and exports. From my point of view, there is only what I make and what everyone else makes. It’s the same for everyone else. Few people would want to live just on what they themselves could make.</i>Jim Peethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07649414726939918803noreply@blogger.com
