Free Trade, Free Markets: Rating the Congress
With all the China bashing we're hearing on the campaign trail and the arguments from both candidates that free trade agreements are good only because they increase manufacturing exports, one might reasonably deduce that free trade advocacy is a thing of the past and a losing position with the American people. If this is true, many in Congress haven't gotten the memo. The House and Senate are home to many free traders. You can see for yourself by visiting Cato's interactive trade votes database, Free Trade, Free Markets: Rating the Congress.

In his timely new ebook, False Idol: Barack Obama and the Continuing Cult of the Presidency, Cato scholar Gene Healy examines how the vision of the presidency Barack Obama embodies has led to a dangerous concentration of power in an office primarily designed for faithful execution of the laws. Further, Healy demonstrates how decades of longing for our president to be a national redeemer have forged an institution that promises everything and guarantees nothing, save public frustration and the steady growth of federal power.
