you know I dwelt on this a bit, and the revolution was thrown by the people and it wasn’t thrown for mercantilism. it was just against the feudal system. but what followed was mercantilism. merchants didn’t throw the revolution. I don’t know how you got the conclusion that the French revolution was a mercantilist revolution. I honestly can’t think of a single mercantilist revolution. The closest thing I can imagine are the American revolution and possibly the piracy of the 18th century.

this isn’t a trial. it’s a discussion. you don’t win by trapping me into a false dichotomy.
