Re: What says Wikipedia on comparative advantage? (4.00 / 2)
And I don't think striving, as a state, to be the best you can be should be considered nationalist, at least as long nationalist has a negative connotation. I'd rather use a more positive word, like patriotic. Working for your country without kicking the shit out of other countries.

Under absolute advantage that's not good enough, you have to kick the shit out of your competitors because only being first in absolute terms works.

Bush is a symptom, not the disease.
