Comércio Livre Vs Proteccionismo

Na Tech Central Station

The best policy for America, regardless of the policies of other countries, is free trade -- the complete elimination of all import restrictions. In those rare cases of foreign subsidization creating a genuine threat to efficient American firms, private capital markets are much more reliable than politicians at identifying such instances and mobilizing the private capital necessary to respond to such threats most appropriately. Subsidies, far from making foreign firms fiercer competitors, make them so bloated and sluggish that action by Uncle Sam will rarely be necessary to protect efficient U.S. firms from them.

We hope that the Bush administration keeps these truths in mind as it decides whether or not to maintain the steel tariffs

Espero que os Governos europeus também tenham isto em conta...
