Careful studies at our Peterson Institute for International Economics show that the U.S. economy is $1 trillion per year richer as a result of the trade liberalization of the past 60 years, and that we would gain another $500 billion per year if the world could move to totally free trade.
This is exactly the reason why I'm still thinking of not supporting Obama. He's a populist that tells people that free and open trade is bad, thus his stand that NAFTA needs to be renegotiated.
