"Free" trade. Land of the "Free". Freedom: to be free from oppression. Is it just me, or is there a pattern here?
Government: from the word "govern", meaning to restrict, oppress, control.
What ever happened to "Live free or die"? When did it become "Live free, unless you make more money than me, then you deserve to be oppressed"?

Screaming Eagle - China received MFN status in 1980, on Jimmy Carter's recommendation, and that status has been confirmed every year since. That means that Clinton also sought MFN status for them, too.

Then why did Bush give Communist China most favored trading status?
