From Jonah's latest syndicated column:
The Europeans should be ashamed of themselves because they claim to care more about the Third World - and pretty much everything else - than we do. The United States should be ashamed because we claim to be free marketers and we're not. And the protesters should be ashamed because their solution to a bad process is to make it much worse.

If the protesters had their way, there would be less, not more, global trade. Not only would that keep poor people poor, it would continue to hurt the environment they claim to care so much about. Rich countries have clean environments. Poor countries don't.
