You've picked up Mr. Cundiff's annoying habit of misspelling my name when expressing disagreement with me. Tariffs were used to both protect American markets and fund our comparatively small federal government until Wilson. Since tariffs were replaced by the income tax, government has grown enormously. I think there's a connection here. And no, advocating tariffs doesn't make me a "neocon." National Review and the Weekly Standard regularly denounce tariffs or anything they think might lead to "protectionism." Your position on trade is far closer to the neocon position than my own.
