#3  Free trade is a myth. There is not an even playing field. Over-regulation by government, government meddling in our free enterprise (bailouts, cash for clunkers, etc.), unions, cap & trade BS, and product liability suits have driven industry off-shore.

Growth from a low level easily overtakes growth from a higher level.

One FACT is this. Protectionism is a subsidy from consumers to producers. It makes the country poorer for a few special interests.
