Ultimately, with free trade every man will work for the wages of the Chinese and enjoy the same Orwellian freedom. The free traders ignore the reality that without economic borders, there will be no national or political borders. Free trade is a weapon of the One Worlders.

Free trade is socialistic just as Orwellian freedom is slavery.
Mr. Brandly has been brainwashed by his state-run university to embrace a philosophy that is incompatible with the Christian world view he believes he holds. Fortunately, there is still hope. Mr. Brandly will graduate with his Ph. D. in Economics, find unemployment in the coming New World Order, and discover the beginning of his real education.
