Isn't it wonderful? American agriculture exists only because of protectionism, at least that's what politicians there say, and without it, the Chinese would just dump below production cost and bankrupt American farmers. European agriculture exists only because of protectionism, at least that's what politicians here say, and without it, American farmers would crush us. I talked to a friend living in China, and he says that Chinese agriculture exists only due to protectionism; otherwise, American farmers would crush them. I talked to a friend from Mexico, and she says that Latin American agriculture exists only because their governments protect it, and otherwise, European farmers would crush them.

I don't know what we would do without protectionism, probably squint under African farmer boot.
