We are going to continue our efforts not just to expand trade, but to expand it in a way that reinforces our fundamental values, and, for me, the way the global economic system must move. Many Americans are surprised when I tell them that the amount we allocate to the entire spectrum of foreign affairs is only about one penny of every dollar the federal government spends.
Globalization can be a source of new values.
One thing that globalization is very effective in doing is exposing elites to outside competition. It is time we found common ground because it's a different world out there. It's not an either-or situation. You wont survive in the 21st century unless you trade. But it has to be fair trade for it to work.
