RE:Re: A project for Pen-L

this is a worthy project. However, it's important at each step to always distinguish "free trade" _in theory_ and "free trade" in practice. For example, in theory it refers to Ricardian stuff about comparative advantage, or more generally the the benefits of buying and selling vs. autarchy. But in practice, it refers to easy mobility of capital investment, deregulation, etc. I can imagine that some would favor FT in theory, but not as actually practiced. -- Jim Devine
