So wrong. If your PRESS your people into labor to make products cheaper that compete with fair living wage workers then there’s nothing “free” about the trade.

Free markets = Free Trade. Everything else is mercantilism.

Capitalism, at its core, is private ownership of the property rights of the three fundamental characteristics of capital. 1. The control right. 2. The disposal right. 3. The rights to its returns. It is Market Capitalism that adds the freedom to trade inside and across political boundries.

But it’s not free trade if one nation charges tarrifs, and the other does not. It’s also not free trade if a nations government supplements the manufacturer so it can sell in other nations at less than its costs.
