Hey Barry:
Y'all gotta get your econs to read this here bout trade:
"Hi Michael.
You may be interested to know I am now in a running online debate about free trade organized by WorldTradeLaw.net and the Cato Institute, a libertarian think-tank in Washington. WorldTradeLaw.net is the moderator; as they explain it:
On the free trade side will be Dan Griswold of the Cato Institute, who has a recent book out called Mad about Trade: Why Main Street America Should Embrace Globalization. On the protectionism side will be Ian Fletcher, whose book Free Trade Doesn't Work: What Should Replace it and Why I reviewed here.
The opening statements of our debate are here:

Griswold: http://worldtradelaw.typepad.com/ielpblog/2010/02/the-great-trade-debate-daniel-griswold-main-street-america-benefits-from-global-engagement.html
Counter-arguments are scheduled for next Tuesday, March 2, so keep your eyes open!
Best Regards,
Ian Fletcher
