Scores of countries once dominated by the Soviet Union are looking to rejoin the global marketplace. Other countries formerly with stateimposed protectionist systems are eager to join the 21st century as well. Here at home. the United States is beset by large trade and Federal deficits. Our economy is in the doldrums. We are losing manufacturing jobs to our competitors. Illegal immigrants are pouring across our borders. Internationally. we are bogged down in Somalia and Bosnia and Haiti for who knows what reason. trying to promote whatever. In my view. free trade is perhaps the best way to promote economic growth in the 21st century.
