It may be objected that it a large part of Britain's wealth comes from her foreign trade she must receive more for her exports than she pays for her importa. This, however, does not afect the general argument. It merely means that her profits will be lessened by the value of the decreased export of luxuries arising from her own economy in foreign-luxuries. Again, the State
