Man Against The State | Protectionism Smashed (by Murray Rothbard) @ManAgainstTheState | Uploaded June 2017 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Murray Rothbard eloquently smashes the economic doctrine that tariffs and quotas are good for the economy. He explains that they are coerced special privileges granted to a few inefficient domestic producers, at the expense of the mass of consumers.
This was published as a monograph in 1986, and appeared as Chapter 89 "Protectionism and the Destruction of Prosperity" in the Rothbard collection "Making Economic Sense" (1995).
