Seven Kinds of Free Traders-Protectionists Unite
A long critical essay outlines seven classes of free traders and their motives, from single tax advocates to importers, against protectionist policies. It argues for tariffs, cites England’s protected and colonial system, and portrays free trade as a danger to domestic industry with historical crises and economic harm. The piece ends by asserting protection as prudent and warns Democrats about whiskey and ten horns.
