BS. Hundreds of millions of Asians are subsistence farmers, and for them factory work is a big step up in pay and conditions. They are free people acting in their own interests.

So the gloBULList venom seeps out of your craven mind.

You know what? I could give a crap about the rest of the world. I am an American and only care about America. I could care less about gloBULLism you traitorous POS. Go f you self if you care about dung eating Chinese peasants than you do Americans.

By the way Reagan had a pretty good record of protectionism, so you might change your handle.

Reagan was protectionist against certain countries (Japan), and for certain industries (steel). I other areas, he was very much a free trader.

When Ronald Reagan's announced his candidacy for President of the United States on November 13th, 1979, he said the following:

"It may take the next 100 years, but we can dare to dream that at some future date a map of the world might show the North American continent as one in which the peoples and commerce of its three strong countries flow more freely across their present borders than they do today."

The Reagan administration participated in the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations in 1986 that lowered global tariffs and created the World Trade Organization.

The Reagan administration also negotiated the U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement in 1988.
