What the fuck is “unfair trade”? We don’t have “open borders”, we have a problem with the asylum seeking process which you’ve probably never even heard of until now. You don’t want solutions. You want easy. Lazy fucking American.An example of unfair trade would be something like Insulin in the states. Difficult to quantify objectively. For example a 2,153% markup for something that’s very inelastic- meaning no matter what they charge for it, people will have to buy it from them due to copyright laws. This may be because of natural monopolies like with oil, Super-PACs that lobby for monopolist-friendly laws, etc.
We actually did have an open border problem under Biden. Regardless of whether there’s a people with the asylum seeking process, there is a legal way to do it and an illegal way. The numbers of people coming here illegally hit record highs under Pres. Biden Unfair trade - 2016 china flooded our steel markets with steel below market value, which hurt our steel industry.
It’s difficult to quantify objectively what “unfair” means but yeah. Most Americans agree that insulin (at least pre-Biden’s price cap) was an example of ridiculously unfair trade due to monopolies and lack of substitutions (e.g, you will die without insulin and cannot substitute it for other items)
