From a letter to the FT by Professors Robert McGee and Yeomin Yoon:
President Obama should be audacious enough to proclaim the following: In a free enterprise economic system, domestic producers have no inherent claim on the funds of consumers. The only ethical way of obtaining the funds of consumers is through voluntary trade. Using the force of the government to obtain the funds (by prohibiting foreign suppliers from competing) puts domestic producers in the role of the aggressor, and in fact makes consumers the real victims. That is exactly what happens when a domestic producer appeals to the government to request an anti-dumping investigation against some foreign producer that is merely taking business away. Therefore, all anti-dumping laws and policies should be abrogated to promote freer trade.
