ToddsterPatriot, I began the thread... When you make sweeping claims, "annual trade deficits are always net detrimental to their nation's GDP",
people who are interested in the topic would like you to discuss apparent holes in your claim.
I guess you can admit your sweeping claim was in error, show that the apparent hole isn't really a hole, or run away. Again.

Upon further consideration, I determined that although Import Certificates can, and often would likely behave as an indirect and effective subsidy for their nation's exports, the policy is not less (than any other trade policy is), vulnerable to mischief from various entities motivated to undermine the nation's international trade;
(i.e. trade policy is, as free-trade or any other trade policy is, vulnerable retaliation that's contrary to their nation's trade policy).
On the other hand, it's a fact rather than an opinion that annual trade deficits are ALWAYS, (more than otherwise) net detrimental to their nation's GDP and thus, to their nation's numbers of jobs.
Respectfully, Supposn
