Well, I support free trade, just like Ronald Reagan, George Bush, Tom DeLay, Dick Armey, and Newt Gingrich.

Tom DeLay has consistently voted for fast-track trade negotiations for the President.

Newt Gingrich, in fact, suggested that we add Great Britain into NAFTA to create a larger free-trade bloc.

An analysis of voting on 30 key issues in the 107th Congress finds that few members of Congress voted consistently for free trade. Only 15 House members opposed barriers and subsidies in more than two-thirds of the votes they cast. They were all Republicans. The most consistent free traders in the House were Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), Charles Bass (R-N.H.), Richard Armey (R-Tex.), Judy Biggert (R-Ill.), Phil Crane (R-Ill.), Jim Ramstad (R-Minn.), and John Sununu (R-N.H.).

I'm not sure what party you should vote for, I suppose "United We Stand" or the Green Party would fit your reasoning.

Reagan believed in "Trickle-Down" economics, which promotes capital investment domestically. The rest Bush, et-all are just followers of Reagan’s ideals. They incorrectly interpret "Free-Trade" as increasing domestic investment. Capital investment in the local economy by business is what creates jobs and grows the economy.

I'm a Reagan man myself, but he meant for trickle-down to trickle in the US not some far away land. Don't misinterpret his intentions he would have been hard against any trade agreement that reduces domestic investment.

Funny how you cannot seriously argue the benefits of free trade. Funny how you cannot seriously point to any supposed benefits offsetting the destruction of this country's capital base.

Now, you are reduced to "Well, since commies think it rains in April, since you think it rains in April you must be a commie.". Pathetic.

Can you think for yourself at all or do you just parrot libertarian theory which obviously has no relation to what is actually happenning ?

I don't vote for any "Party," I vote for whom I understand to be the best "individual."
