False Protection and Labor Cost in Textile Trade
A historical argument argues that wage differences do not determine production costs, noting high wages in Europe yet similar labor costs to the United States due to machinery and efficiency. It cites Edward Atkinson on U.S. labor costs and criticizes tariffs seen as aiding labor, detailing woolen industry effects, tax burdens on raw materials, and the McKinley tariff’s impact, with figures from 1870 to 1892 and comments on the sugar trust and Buddhist temple analogy.
