==Protectionism in India==
+
In [[Milton Friedman]]'s seminal book, ''[[Free To Choose]]'', Friedman holds up [[India]] as the prime example of how [[protectionism]] retards [[economic growth]]. Friedman cites how in homes in every village in India there are looms for making clothes rather than clothing being mass produced in textile factories. Friedman estimated in 1979 that India was at least 100 years behind [[the West]] in industrialization, and protectionism denied [[import]]ing foreign manufactured clothing.

The recent dust up between [[Trump]], [[Peter Navarro]] and India highlighted that 46% of India's labor force was employed in [[agriculture]] producing only 17% of [[GDP]]. Granted, that may be an inefficient use of resources, but it is not for [[globalist]]s and Trump to decide. Trump & Navarro pressured India to accept American agricultural products or face 25% [[tariff]]s (the [[Russophobic]] [[Lady Lindsey]] stuff was tacked on to make it 50%), But [[Modi]] estimated it would create social upheaval with a reduction of agricultural workers.

Here is a classic case of the [[War on Sovereignty]] vs. [[Globalism]]. And there is no hiding the fact that Trump took the side of [[globalist]]s and [[warmonger]]s in this [[trade]] dispute, causing unprecedented harm to [[US foreign policy]] for the future.
