Our readingWhat is a korrent?
Drawn from what Corey Robin said
tariffs Taxes on imports: whether they close a trade deficit, what they do to prices, and what they are really for.
capitalism Markets as a system rather than a market: what it is for, what it costs, and what people mean when they say they are retiring from it.
Spelled out in terms of ideological substance, it is a tradition that will not blink before repressive state power, unless that power violates the basic capstones of neoliberal capitalism: no tariffs, no political control over monetary policy, no fundamental redefinition of the nation such as to preclude, now and forever, the children of immigrants.
