  • Protectionism in China - Something to Worry About [View article]
    Buy American sounds good to me because I have an American passport and that country is in trouble. Otherwise I'm not so sure. And if I were calling the shots in China, I would recommend a Buy China policy, because the interior of China is still underdeveloped, and people in those regions need some industrial experience. I taught this sort of thing at a post-graduate institute in Senegal a few centuries ago, and all my students agreed that it made sense. Whether they in turn recommended it to their governments is quite another matter.
