Private corporations can clean the clocks of socialized nations, and they do. We buy "cheap crap" from China because their people are so poor that they'll work for less, not because they're winning a competition. They are "doing the jobs Americans won't do" from outside our borders, which is much better than doing it inside our borders where they can vote, undermine the culture, and claim welfare.
Our policy failures are these:
1. A bunch of other things are attached to "free trade" policies, such as "one world government" notions. These attachments don't need to exist. We should distinguish "globalization" - international trade - from "globalism", which is WEF politics.
2. Inspired by globalist faith, we are pricing the risk of supply-chain dependence poorly. Poor pricing decisions as a result of left-wing dogmas are not new; think about all of the money spent on useless "green tech".
Proper free trade is simply property rights - the right to do as you please with your own property (including trading) without the government putting its finger on the scale. America became great by means of it, and we can again. But we need to stop attaching woke ideology to it, and we need to clean up Democrats' messes, whether they be our relationship with Mexico or our relationship with China.

No. Tariffs and we protect our own. I don’t think the nation is property, nor a parcel of property.
Nor are people property.
This Free Trade ideology gutted our economy and a few got rich, many suffered. We are a nation, not a holding company.
