Or do you think that the people should be ignored in the name of political ideology?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, Luis...

As if we've never seen Calypso Louie Gonzalez do his "we are a democracy, not a republic" shtick before.

But, in general, the protective system of our day is conservative, while the free trade system is destructive. It breaks up old nationalities and pushes the antagonism of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie to the extreme point. In a word, the free trade system hastens the social revolution. It is in this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, that I vote in favor of free trade.

Karl Marx also claimed that every capitalist system would grow poorer over time as workers were "exploited," and that every socialist system would grow richer.

Dear Karl, I give you North Korea and Cuba versus Japan and the U.S.

Life is good!

Willie, you can't be such a political ingenue that you throw Marx at me?

I can see that you've gone into the name calling already, so I'll make it brief so that you can get back to your researching of Marx.

Marx was a liar, most communists are liars by nature. Marx apoke in favor of free trade while setting up a society that was anything but free, he did it for naifs such as yourself.

Even strong National Socialists like yourself should have seen through that claptrap.

Thanks for the answer by the way; it appears that as I suspected, you are all about political ideology over the will of the governed.

See you around Willie.
