Left-wing productionists emphasize that workers should have high wages so they'll buy more stuff, and that'll keep the cycle going; right-wing productionists emphasize that businesses need to make profits so they'll hire people, which will keep the cycle going—they have massive fights over this on TV and in op-ed pages and faculty lounges, but deep down, they have the same worldview.

Though the friends greatly enjoyed many aspects of the IRL parts of the job, both expressed distaste for much of the current state of the online Sparrow community: the fights over costume accuracy down to the thread and belt buckles; competitive legions of Sparrows willing to go full troll on someone's Facebook page if provoked; and the "Johnny Depp obsessives" online who find lookalike pages to either try to sexually solicit them or yell at them for trying to imitate the inimitable Depp.

The United States first introduced a protective tariff of this kind in George Washington's administration (this is in part what "Cabinet Battle #1" from Hamilton is about) and fights over the use of tariffs as a tool of economic policy were a staple of American politics until about World War I. They went badly out of style in the second half of the twentieth century, but these days the idea of a steep tariff exercises a kind of fascination over the minds of heterodox thinkers precisely because economists are so uniformly opposed to it, and the idea of sticking it to orthodox economics seems kind of fun.
