it's the culture that makes a country great.
That must make the Persians, and Greeks, and Tahitians, and Egyptians feel great! Culture is also what makes cheese blue.

Freetrade is a concept. It is great for economics class discussion, but classroom discussion doesn't factor in world politics and war. They gloss over that stuff, saying it will all be taken care off by economics.

Things don't work that way in real life, we are not in utopia, and steel is a vital industry.

I am not against freetrade for some things, but for now, I think the U.S. is better served by going slow on it. Maybe in a few hundred years, things will be different.
