"The American School/The American System" of economics. Hamilton. List. Clay

So there is a economic/political system that - Has a name. Has been [successfully?] employed. Was birthed in the US and used for over a century.

And until about 2 months ago I had never heard of it mentioned. (no, I am not caught up on the good Doctors prolific book output so forgive me if this is recap for yous)

Hamilton created it at the request of G Washington. Pro-tariff, “protectionist,” nationalist, central bank but PUBLIC, pro-education/improve tech.
Hamilton address to congress:

Friedrich List learned in it America, took it back to Germany - was large influence on Third Reich approach.

““American System” was coined by Clay to distinguish it, as a school of thought, from the competing theory of economics at the time, the “British System” represented by Adam Smith.”

It competed directly WITH globalist/free trade/stock brokers from Albion. No wonder it was always glossed over in my history lessons.

Nick Fuentes - Groupyers - BookCat - Wendell - Malton - Casey
these are the political Fuentes followers who are really digging into the idea/writings (“the book club” all about reading source materials). they are super duper JQ pilled (way past the point of usefulness IMO) which makes them ‘dismiss-able’ but the economic concept has hope and merit.

Michael Hudson of all people singlehandedly kept publishing on the idea until BookCat came along and popularlized Hudson’s wonderful but also quite flawed book America’s Protectionist Takeoff

It’s been postulated that America did it well. Germany did it well. AND China has had the LARGEST interest and has been importing List-ian thinkers for YEARS and following a plan that has been proved to resist the private-debt-banked-gloablism promoters by giving good results to it’s people. Hummmmmm,

In my opinion, the “American System” is (or was) simply common sense. And there’s definitely a reason you’d never heard of it – the same reason they don’t teach kids about debt-based currency in school. As I understand it, the American System’s goal was the well-being of the overall U.S. economy, which is probably why it was abandoned. Totally free trade, plus replacing tariffs with an income tax, benefits the 0.01%, the banksters, and globalist interests; the American System didn’t do so to the same degree.
