The Framers of the Constitution ensured that the respective states of the Union would be forever prohibited from implementing trade restrictions and immigration controls against one another. The result has been the largest free-trade and free-movement zone in history among the states.

Nope, I don't think the founders would support the WTO AT ALL.
