The American economy prospered due to a Mercantilism Economic policy. We have lost our economy due to Milton Friedman's Free Market Economy which in reality is justification for a slave market economy. In the 1850's slavery was justified by race, today it's the Free Market.
If Trump has his way with a border tax the economy will come back in a heartbeat. Labor cannot compete with slavery.
