The American Mind: Trump’s Patriotic View of Trade
President Trump's tariff policy has sparked debate over its economic and political implications, but it also raises ethical questions about patriotism in trade. Advocates argue that a patriotic trade policy prioritizes American interests, suggesting that citizens should prefer to engage in commerce with fellow Americans.
Patriotism, defined as a love for one's country and fellow citizens, implies a duty to support American businesses, even at a cost to consumers. This perspective supports moderate tariffs to encourage domestic trade while still allowing for beneficial foreign exchanges. Critics may highlight the immediate costs to consumers, but proponents argue that a patriotic duty exists to protect American exporters from unfair foreign practices.
