Actually no it isn't. You must read the WTO charter, NAFTA, GATT and the FTAA. They clearly posit socialist policies withing their trade agreements.

In order for Brazil to sign the FTAA, they are demanding that the US create a program to end global hunger, and also to give free US taxpayer dollars to that country for "infrastructure development". That is not "free trade".

In order for Venezuela to sign the FTAA they are demanding tht the US create a program of redistribution of US taxpayer dollars called "structural convergence". Than is not "free trade" but our salivating little trade minister will give any concession in order to make the FTAA happen.

In order for Mexico to sign the FTAA the US must allow open migration of Mexican nationals, social security for illegal immigrants and lower fees for sending remittances outside of the country. The president just met with Vicente Fox this weekend and agreed to all their "conditions" on "free trade".

The idea of "infrastructure development" evolved directly from the WTO who says "rich" countries must pay to bring teh standard of living of "poor" countries, or "least developed countries" like china, up. That is not "free trade".

In fact, there is no "free trade" only managed trade by the global socialists who run the WTO and the UN.
