::By the way, I gave you two essays of Phyllis Schlafly indicating that she was for tariffs and not against them.[https://www.phyllisschlafly.com/national-sovereignty/trade/the-phyllis-schlafly-report-march-1996/][https://www.phyllisschlafly.com/national-sovereignty/what-s-the-big-deal-about-tariffs-1392/] Just because she supported some of Ronald Reagan's public policies, doesn't mean she supported all his policies. This is a sign of your all-or-nothing thinking and your resistance to facts (lack of intellectual curiosity and resistance to changing your opinion) which are unintelligent behaviors.

:::Also, just stating your opinions doesn't make them facts. How many times do I have to tell you that? So telling me that tariffs caused the Great Depression is totally unimpressive - especially since you made no mention of the 1929 stock market crash in the USA. And anything done in excess and not done intelligently can cause economic problems so even if the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act did make the Great Depression worse, that doesn't necessarily mean that all tariffs are bad because not all nations engage in fair trade, etc. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 10:59, January 28, 2025 (EST)

::::Also, I predicted that Russia could not have a [[Guns and butter economic concept|guns and butter economy]] without inflation hitting it down the pike. You told me that this was not going to happen. Well, you were wrong. In addition, I was right about China's economy getting worse and you were wrong. I am certainly not in your league on foreign policy and macroeconomics because you are in the bush league. Looking back, I am glad that I had a very strict and tough macroeconomics professor. I still remember something he said in relation to economics: "There is no such thing as a free lunch".
