Will the Real Howard Dean Please Stand Up?

摘要

In indianola, iowa, last week, howard dean said the most amazing thing. He was talking about free trade. He said that if his trade policy―a tax on products from countries that don't meet labor and environmental standards―was enacted there would be some bad news: "Prices will go up at your local Wal-Mart." But, he added, there would be good news too. American jobs would be protected. Immigrants would be less likely to come to America, since their wages at home would probably increase. A stable middle class would be created in developing countries.
