The former Senator supports low taxes and free trade. On May 13, 2007 he told the ABC radio audience that “[Globalization] works to our benefit. We innovate more and invest in that innovation better than anywhere else in the world. Same thing goes for services, which are increasingly driving our economy. Free trade and market economies have done more for freedom and prosperity than a central planner could ever dream and we’re the world’s best example of that.”
Thompson says he is for low taxes (having NO income tax would be a far better position however) and control of the border. But I’ve seen more than enough damage done by “globalization” over the past fifteen years to know to steer clear and away from anyone who thinks it’s supposed to be a virtue.
Didn’t anyone learn anything from NAFTA?...
