'@ACrowbarEnthusiast' " It was once the role of the patriot to wish ill for all other countries and strength for his own,"
That's some weird definition of patriot.
"but economics teaches us that the role of the patriot is to wish well to other countries for it helps our own country to succeed."
That must be some interesting school of economics that handwaved away things like price dumping, currency manipulation, trade wars and fun things like that. You can try wishing well to China and hope that they won't stiff you at first opportunity.
