Fifty Years of the Phyllis Schlafly Report: Communists Still Use the “Trick Called Trade”

All conservatives agree that we need to “drain the swamp,” but it is much harder to agree on how to do that. Ultimately, draining the swamp means removing the corrupt influence of Washington bureaucrats from an otherwise superior system of constitutionally limited government based on personal rights and free enterprise. To most, trade policy might seem irrelevant to this goal. However, Phyllis Schlafly understood that politicians use trade policy as a way to broker their power and pick winners and losers in a blatantly uncapitalistic fashion. She saw the importance of the trade issue when she wrote her August 1972 Phyllis Schlafly Report entitled “Subsidizing the Soviets with a Trick Called Trade.”  In order to truly drain the swamp, we must seize this unconstitutional power wielded by Washington bureaucrats who offer financial and commercial aid to those acting in aggression to American interests.
