“A report funded by several governments found that the level of armed conflict in Muslim countries is lower today than two decades ago, and trade is the reason.”
Which countries funded this report? north korea, yemen, iran, somolia, pokiston, iraq?????
9 car bombs went off in iraq yesterday. Egypt is in the middle of reforming after civil war and obama dividing and trying to conquer them. War rages in syria. Murder is happening in Lebanon daily and Yemen is terrorist central and death is standard equipment. This one sentence above kind of taints the entire article.
That's from a French economist, but it's an American tradition too; free trade with Russia and China dates back before George Washington's administration and continued with trade pacts with Europe, Asia, and the Americas into the 1800's.
More proof that Free Trade is a LIBERAL idea....only a fool would trade with a country that offers zero to the US.
I don’t support sending US forces into Syria....but even worse would be following a Free Trade Communist Globalist sissypants like Stossel. If Stossel likes EU style Free Trade...he can leave America
What is EU style free trade?
“Free Trade Communist”
Huh? Free trade is free enterprise, not communism.
Karl Marx liked Free Trade. Look it up.
Ya checked any unemployment stats lately?
Just WHO is winning this here “trade war”??
Free trade is good, slave trade is bad. There are somethings that are simply non-negotiable.

I believe in trade and proper application of tariffs to raise revenue and reduce the income tax burden. You on the other hand love income taxes and want the US govt to keep reaching around in my pocket. You have a perverted view of freedom.
Free Traitors will destroy the economy to teach us all a lesson.
This can't be due to regulation, taxes, lawyers, etc. No, it has to be that darned free trade.
See what happens when you give people too much freedom? Damn, I sure hope the government does something to stop all that freedom to trade!
Hopefully, we can make government bigger and authoritative enough to stop this runaway freedom before it destroys us.
We want fewer choices, higher prices, and a more powerful central government....NOW!! Bring back American jobs! If it saves just one life........
You love income taxes now don't you. Who knew you were a progressive. What do you think funded FedGov for the first 100 years? Take your beef up with President Washington, not me.
In your twisted world, those who argue for the protection of an individuals right to buy and sell with whomever they want makes someone a lib? Yeah, rational self-interest is such a collectivist trait. To you, freedom has to be regulated by an all powerful central government. And that makes you conservative? Uh huh. Sure.
I guess President Washington was a collectivist. LOL
I'll side with the good general any day than with an a$$wipe free traitor.
That didn't take long. Anything else happening on the Freerepublic today?
One big happy Republic, as always! lol
