Cotton Twist Returns to Defend Free Trade Polemic
In a fiery letter to the Weekly Carontele, the author返serts that Peel has deceived farmers and manufacturers alike by tariff and income tax policy. He condemns the government’s handling, laments broken promises, and urges united action against a system he calls built on falsehood. The piece critiques Peel’s revenue gains and contrasts promises with outcomes, urging readers to see through political pretenses and resist “robbery of all for the benefit of none.”
