I tend to agree that the WTO is biased, but international trade negotiations are difficult anyway, and they are not subject to our courts because nobody is obliged to accept our terms or trade with us.
Also, the anti-Bush bias in this article is palpable. Bush didn't sign us onto Free Trade--that's been an ongoing process for the past 50 or 60 year, mostly in reaction to the devastating trade barriers that went up in the 1930s.
"President Bush's enthusiasm for WTO-supervised global "free trade" explains why "you could almost hear a collective sigh of relief" from foreign capitals over his re-election, stated the December 2 Christian Science Monitor."
Horse manure. Did any Freepers hear a collective sigh of relief when Bush won the election. Rather the contrary. All around the world the media and the opinion leaders were bitching and complaining. Chirac's nose is still out of joint.
<< Chirac's nose is still out of joint. >>
Especially at the knowlege that several millions more Americans VOTED for our President and Armed-Forces Commander-In-chief, George walker Bush, than the entire population of FRance!
