Didn ' t vote for Trumpor Hillary and my New Balance aren ' t going anywhere , they are good shoes . Sucks that some white supremacist dipshits declare them shoes for whites but the CEO being a Trump fan doesn ' t actually make them that . Their competition exploits the shit out of thirdworld laborers , compared to that New Balance ' s sins should hardly even register . <| sep |> I remember when the political Right supported actual free market ideology , not rebranded leftist protectionism for high union wages . In the Wealth of Nations , the foundation of modern conservative free market capitalism , Adam Smith argued that for the free market to truly thrive , we must have unimpeded movement of both labour and capital . Not crippled , protectionist markets where labour or capital is manipulated by artificial limitations and borders . Yet people today calling for protectionist policies claim to be ' conservatives '.
