Intel Ex-CEO Says Rethink Trade

Andy Grove, ex-CEO of the largest computer chip maker, Intel, encourages politicians to re-consider lopsided trade and not fear trade-wars. You only lose trade wars if you don't have experience fighting them, he suggests. This is a man with vast business and technology manufacturing experience.

As I have pointed out before, we have the advantage in any trade-war with problem nations because they have far more to lose than us. In the 1930's we had a trade surplus before we picked trade fights. You don't pick fights with a surplus; that's stupid.
