Toddsterpatriot, no, unlike quotas or tariffs, IC policy is much more market rather than government driven and would increase USA's annual GDP more than otherwise.What you referred to was USA deliberately supporting the price of sugar and thus consequentially shifting our markets sales and production of aggregate products.
Yes. And you want an IC plan which would do similar things to our economy.
Import Certificates will increase their nation's GDP more than otherwise.
Except in those areas where it will decrease our GDP.
It cannot prevent any particular type of product from being imported. Although it certainly favors USA produced goods to a limited extent, it does not favor or disfavor any other of the world's geographic or political areas, or enterprise, or industry. It's applicable to the dollar values of all goods excluding the values of mineral materials integral to the goods that are listed as scarce or precious minerals; (crude oil is expected to be on that list).

You consider a trade policy not favoring or disfavoring any particular USA state or region as to be an undesirable federal policy?

Respectfully, Supposn

If the result is the same, why does it matter that it is "much more market rather than government driven"?
and would increase USA's annual GDP more than otherwise.
It can increase our GDP while also reducing our standard of living.
Do you agree?
It can increase our GDP in some areas while also reducing our GDP in others.
Do you agree?
