That's *exactly* why trade is good and why the US has spent the past
eighty or so years evolving free trade. Each nation becomes too
dependent on the others to risk going to war with them.
If a nation is your only source of wheat, you dare not invade them.
When you're their only source of corn, they dare not invade you.
It amazes me that the Magas and haters don't get that. It's as if
they'd rather live in a combative world risking war than to play nice
with the other kids.
The supreme example of 'trade is good' is that there has not been a
war between major powers since 1945.
