"Fair Trade" is like Pro-Abortion people saying "I'm not Pro-Abortion, I'm Pro-Choice."

In other words, it's a semantics game that means nothing. He's anti-free trade, period.

Milton Friedman said, "If you put equality above freedom , you'll get neither. If you put freedom above equality, you'll get a great deal of both."

Fair trade militates against free trade the way mandated quotas stifle freedom and productivity.
