When Samuelson was pro-free trade, before joining his "fellow liberals"...you respected him?
Don't be lying now...
He was the author of my introduction to economics textbook -- this was in the days when free trade meant free trade not moving production offshore for "cheap" labor and importing "cheap" labor's goods and services.
Yes, I respected the young professor and was glad the university selected his book.
I don't know how many times we've got to say it: We are for free trade.
