Liberal Politicians Launched the Idea of “Free Trade Agreements” In the 1960s to Strip Nations of Sovereignty
Preface: Liberals might assume that it is Republicans who are cheerleaders for global corporations at the expense of government. But, as shown below, liberal politicians have been just as bad … or worse.
Matt Stoller – who writes for Salon and has contributed to Politico, Alternet, Salon, The Nation and Reuters – knows his way around Washington.
Stoller – a prominent liberal – has scoured the Congressional Record to unearth hidden historical facts. For example, Stoller has previously shown that the U.S. government push for a “New World Order” is no wacky conspiracy theory, but extensively documented in the Congressional Record.
Now, Stoller uses the Congressional Record to show that “free trade” pacts were always about weakening nation-states to promote rule by multinationals:
Political officials (liberal ones, actually) engaged in an actual campaign to get rid of countries with their pesky parochial interests, and have the whole world managed by global corporations. Yup, this actually was explicit in the 1960s, as opposed to today’s passive aggressive arguments which amount to the same thing.
***
Liberal internationalists, including people like Chase CEO David Rockefeller and former Undersecretary of State and an architect of 1960s American trade policies George Ball, began pressing for reductions in non-tariff barriers, which they perceived as the next set of trade impediments to pull down. But the idea behind getting rid of these barriers wasn’t about free trade, it was about reorganizing the world so that corporations could manage resources for “the benefit of mankind”. It was a weird utopian vision that you can hear today in the current United States Trade Representative Michael Froman’s speeches. I’ve spoken with Froman about this history, and Froman himself does not seem to know much about it. But he is captive of these ideas, nonetheless, as is much of the elite class. They do not know the original ideology behind what is now just bureaucratic true believer-ism, they just know that free trade is good and right and true.
But back to the 1967 hearing. In the opening statement, before a legion of impressive Senators and Congressmen, Ball attacks the very notion of sovereignty. He goes after the idea that “business decisions” could be “frustrated by a multiplicity of different restrictions by relatively small nation states that are based on parochial considerations,” and lauds the multinational corporation as the most perfect structure devised for the benefit of mankind. He also foreshadows our modern world by suggesting that commercial, monetary, and antitrust policies should just be and will inevitably be handled by supranational organizations. [Background.]
Here’s just some of that statement. It really is worth reading, I’ve bolded the surprising parts.
“For the widespread development of the multinational corporation is one of our major accomplishments in the years since the war, though its meaning and importance have not been generally understood. For the first time in history man has at his command an instrument that enables him to employ resource flexibility to meet the needs of peopels all over the world. Today a corporate management in Detroit or New York or London or Dusseldorf may decide that it can best serve the market of country Z by combining the resources of country X with labor and plan facilities in country Y – and it may alter that decision 6 months from now if changes occur in costs or price or transport. It is the ability to look out over the world and freely survey all possible sources of production… that is enabling man to employ the world’s finite stock of resources with a new degree of efficiency for the benefit of all mandkind.
But to fulfill its full potential the multinational corporation must be able to operate with little regard for national boundaries – or, in other words, for restrictions imposed by individual national governments.
To achieve such a free trading environment we must do far more than merely reduce or eliminate tariffs. We must move in the direction of common fiscal concepts, a common monetary policy, and common ideas of commercial responsibility. Already the economically advanced nations have made some progress in all of these areas through such agencies as the OECD and the committees it has sponsored, the Group of Ten, and the IMF, but we still have a long way to go. In my view, we could steer a faster and more direct course… by agreeing that what we seek at the end of the voyage is the full realization of the benefits of a world economy.
Implied in this, of course, is a considerable erosion of the rigid concepts of national sovereignty, but that erosion is taking place every day as national economies grow increasingly interdependent, and I think it desirable that this process be consciously continued. What I am recommending is nothing so unreal and idealistic as a world government, since I have spent too many years in the guerrilla warfare of practical diplomacy to be bemused by utopian visions. But it seems beyond question that modern business – sustained and reinforced by modern technology – has outgrown the constrictive limits of the antiquated political structures in which most of the world is organized, and that itself is a political fact which cannot be ignored. For the explosion of business beyond national borders will tend to create needs and pressures that can help alter political structures to fit the requirements of modern man far more adequately than the present crazy quilt of small national states. And meanwhile, commercial, monetary, and antitrust policies – and even the domiciliary supervision of earth-straddling corporations – will have to be increasingly entrusted to supranational institutions….
We will never be able to put the world’s resources to use with full efficiency so long as business decisions are frustrated by a multiplicity of different restrictions by relatively small nation states that are based on parochial considerations, reflect no common philosophy, and are keyed to no common goal.” ***
These ["free trade"] agreements are not and never have been about trade. You simply cannot disentangle colonialism, the American effort to create the European Union, and American trade efforts. After their opening statements, Ball and Rockefeller go on on to talk about how European states need to be wedged into a common monetary union with our trade efforts and that Latin America needs to be managed into prosperity by the US and Africa by Europe. Through such efforts, they thought that the US could put together a global economy over the next thirty years. Thirty years later was 1997, which was exactly when NAFTA was being implemented and China was nearing its entry into the WTO. Impeccable predictions, gents.
***
I guess it turns out that the conspiracy theorists who believe in UN-controlled black helicopters aren’t as wrong as you might think about trade policy, and not just because United Technologies, which actually makes black helicopters, has endorsed the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
***
These agreements are about getting rid of national sovereignty, and the people who first pressed for NAFTA were explicit about it. They really did want a global government for corporations.
***
Ball in particular expressed his idea of a government by the corporations, for the corporations, in order to benefit all mankind. Keep that in mind when you think you’re being paranoid.
The full hearing can be downloaded here, though it is a big file.
The bottom line is not that liberals – or conservatives – are evil.
It’s that neither the Democratic or Republican parties reflect the true values of the American people (and see this).
Indeed, a scripted psuedo-war between the parties is often used by the powers-that-be as a way to divide and conquer the American people, so that we are too distracted to stand up to reclaim our power from the idiots in both parties who are only governing for their own profit … and a small handful of their buddies. See this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this, this and this.

The Free Enterprise System with competive markets free from corporate monopolies and fair trade- not free trade- were the foundation of the American Dream of self determination in ones lifetime.
Free Trade is nothing more than the freedom of the multinational corporate empire to steal from you whatever they want and do it legally.
The Trilateral Commission and members of the Counsel on Foreign Relations should all be arrested for treason for plotting to overthrow American sovereignty and our American Constitution. The traitors have been openly doing so for the last 30 years!
Free Trade is the bane of the American People. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
It shifts the burden of international corporations paying import tariffs to build and maintain our seaports and transportation and communications infrastructure onto the backs of individual American taxpayers. Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
Free trade is the root cause of our industrial and economicdemise. While the unions were a communist/mobster-run destructive enterprise, the real cause of our economic degradation can be laid at the feet of self-serving/corrupt/moronic D.C. politicians and Wall Street international banksters.
Ovomit and Killary, or another constitutionally ineligible usurper will be the final corporate/political coup de grace of the American Dream.
Don't deceive yourself into thinking that the politicians or uber-corrupt federal courts are going to fix the myriad problems that are undermining our constitutional republic. They are the same demons that have brough this dissolution upon us.
It will require pain, discomfort, and probably bloodshed to throw off this evil monstrosity that has destroyed our once-great nation.
Powder is dry.

Give me the Ross Perot/Putin ticket. Flip their roles around every four years until the country is set back on it's feet. Send the Clintons to Guatanamo.
What the cheerleading parrots in the corporate media cartel call "free trade" is really gubbermint-managed trade, favoring those who buy-and-pay-for the ElephantJackass sock puppets, particularly the transnational corporate behemoths owned by the power elite.
The result is not free enterprise market competition, but a mixture of fascist, socialist & communist economic systems, depending on how many elements of control (title, possession, use & disposition) of the capital gubbermint has.
Watch "Overview of America" to get a better understanding of the political spectrum (0% govt or anarchy on the "right" to 100% or totalitarian govt on the "left"), political systems (monarchy, oligarchy, democracy, republic, anarchy) & economic systems (above) and how they interact. Hint: The free enterprise economic system can only exist under the rule of law in a republic.
George,
Have you ever thought about indexing all of your articles in some sort of electronic book format? Your stuff is unmatched in it's thoroughness and good writing.
Keep up the great work!!!!
"Free trade" means you will sell me whatever I want
for the fiat dollars I can freely print.
-----Uncle Scam
Imagine if a US Politician said the following:
“And we cannot be effective at major economic matters any longer unless we work with our economic partners around the world and work with them closely and intimately. That is essential. I know some people don’t like it. It is a loss of National Sovereignty but it is a simple reality. It is a simple reality.”
- Canuckian Prime Minister Stephen Harper
“We’re gonna have to give up a little bit of our sovereignty to make the world work”
- Former Canuckistanian PM/Finance Minister Paul Martin
In Canada they elected both Stephen Harper and Paul Martin to one of the highest offices in the land; third in rank only to her Royal Highness.
…Oh, well, that explains a lot.
You know, at times I give USeans a (deservedly) roughride here on ZH, but I've got money on my flank that even the stupidest of them wouldn't mark their 'x' in the ballot box for anyone running for office that was that freaking obvious about their agenda.
Nice to see a liberal journalist uncover this.
Although all he had to do was read "None Dare Call It Conspiracy" all those long years ago.

here the stuff i found while looking for the quote i could not find.
I've long agreed that both parties are simply branches of the Bankster Party, but I don't agree with characterizing any Rockefeller as "liberal" - - David Rockefeller flew to Beijing with Nixon and Kissinger, and in 1973 established banking operations there and in Moscow.
The Eisenhower administration appointed his brother Nelson Rockefeller to several positions, allowing him to circumvent and compromise America's foreign aid programs to direct the monies to build foreign factories they would then begin offshoring jobs to (Ex-Im Bank, AID, etc.).
Never been a liberal Rockefeller, no matter what anyone says, and David Rockefeller's lackey, Peter G. Peterson, has long supported the ending of Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, and strict adherence to the WTO's Financial Services Agreement, especially the Fifth Protocol.
Just as today Peterson financially supports an austerity program/organizition with the "nonpartisan" New America Foundation.
I had to laugh when the OP called a Rockefeller a liberal (in the modern American sense). Might as well call FDR a conservative.
George Washington is discussing the actual problem for a change; globalism; eg. the export of all jobs to China; but his idea that David Rockefeller was a "liberal:" made my jaw drop. None of the apologists for government by multi-national corporate interests is a "liberal". Surely, we can agree with that.

Given how the little guy has seen the idea of "free trade" in action, it's been a slap in the balls.
Back in the 20-30's free trade was a good thing, but now a days? Free trade never meant transplanting the industries we were working in, over to a turd world, and then shipping the shit we used to make back to us, without our jobs.
I think you're going to see a return to tarrif and trade barriers with a vengence, very soon.
Get ready, China!

V-V
Did you notice what he told you? That "Free Trade", or the particular perversion that's called that now, is the accepted meme in Washington? that's the problem. We are a profoundly un-educated people and our civil servants cannot and do not "think" beyond whatever is "known to be good" at the moment; the consensus. That's a real problem.
Thanks George. I long believed this to be the case, and it is good to see the dirt exposed. Sadly, I don't expect the MSM to give it much coverage.
"Free" trade has always been about stronger (economically/militarily) nations taking over weaker ones, certainly since at least from the Opium Wars against China.
"Free" trade is a cleverly worded demand for FORCED trade. Basically, refusing to trade is prohibited. Don't want to sell off your nation's resources? - not allowed. Don't want to prohibit international monopolies/oligopolies from driving local farmers out of business? - not allowed. Want to restrict the import of glyphosate or cigarettes? - not allowed. "Free" trade is trade on the terms, beliefs, and financial conditions dictated by the stronger party.
"Free" trade means both rich and poor letting 'money' decide who gets to eat, and who owns what.
For most of its history, while it built up its industry, the main source of US government revenue was tariffs (which shielded nascent industry). Only after becoming the dominant world economic power in WW2 has the US pushed for world-wide open "free trade".
Before then, the US push for "free" trade was primarily limited to (against) Latin America.
"I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested."
-- Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC
that;s right. The situation evolves and the needs and policies of the uber wealthy evolve with them. Right now, globalism sutis them to a "T"; and good luck with your resurgance of tariffs. I'm on your side, but I believe it's hopeless.

the terms are inverted so that when the "leaders" speak in public,

has no idea what they are really talking about. liberal, conservative,

fraudulent credit induction seem legitimate and facilitating the banks
to go about the business of lording over the unwashed in the complete

sorry, my typo
my comment should read:
" Want to stop international monopolies/oligopolies from driving local farmers out of business? - not allowed."
Outstanding comments including the quote from Gen. Butler, the last Marine.
For anyone interested in an outstanding take on the attempt coup, when the Wall Streeters attempted to recruit Gen. Butler, please read Sally Denton's The Plots Against the President.
Too bad he missed the mark. If what he said was true then the wall streeters were already powerful enough to have their way with foreign policy - it all happened across multiple presidencies so government must have been down too. Both sides were corrupt and treasonous. He had an army. He had an army in Washington. He had money from Wall Street. He could have taken power and put them all away before returning to constitutional rule as he certainly would have done. Talk about a missed opportunity.

"my people are dying from a lack of knowledge." >>>>
A great Article George;
One has to be a "sick puppy" to want to destroy national sovereignty and transfer trade policy and the national ability to make a living to multinational corporate policy makers.
Two major points to make here.
1. Multinational Corporations were created to make money by taking advantage of scale, political systems in their path, and protectionist and monetary policies of the Western system.
2. Multinationals do not have their own security structure. They will always rely on the protections of their home military, their government and their central bank as well as other World Financial institutions. At zero to low corporate tax rates, they must have the big military stick of uncle sugar and the FED protecting their butt throughout the world, while at the same time not paying for that protection. They are far away from the concepts of free trade, free markets that the founding fathers had in mind.
As the US has negotiated them, - these large trade agreements are job killers, sovereignty killers and have the potential for leading all of us to financial and war induced destruction. Religion, philosophy, and intellectual reasoning have been replaced by the politically correct musings and actions of the International Corporate elite.
NewWorldOrder - Yep. Free trade = Politicians and corporations get it "free" you and I get the bill. I should bave paid more attention to those protestors in Seattle back in 94' or right around that timeframe.
THis should be front and center, Tylers.
TPP needs to be as well.

GW's essay is awesome. The comix linked above is junk. Read the whole thing. It's leftist bullshit. The usual "government can make everything right if we will just let the technocrats have their way and control the evil capitalists". Sorry! Government and the CRONY unCapitalists are working together and have been ever since Paul Warburg let the statists know he could supply endless "cash" if they'd just give his little firm the right to control the supply of the stuff. The very first thing they did with the cash, beisdes waging two world wars that killed milllions, was to purchase the economic profession, lock, stock, and barrel of chimps that they have become.
Excellent!

I dont get these guys. They know very well that anything built on lies and subversion will crumble and fall. We probabally would have given him the fucking world by now had he been good and worked for humanity instead of against it.
what a dumbass. Too stupid to be good. Ill make sure his dream is never realized. Or die trying.

Greek minister for Culture and Sport reveals the plan of the neoliberal dictatorship for Europe

Excellent George. But, though no fan of liberalism or democrats, what have the fricking republicans done to stop any of this either?
Proves we've been under one party control since at least the 60's, probably longer.
My pet conspiracy theory is that the 60 election was the last one left to chance by TPTB. They were figuring on tricky Dick and getting off the gold standard sooner. Then Kennedy wins (stolen election via Chicago and Daley overvotes) and comes along talking shit about the FRB and mafia (difference?) and stuff like that and next thing he gets a bullet through the head. Place LBJ in there then tricky Dick and the rest is history. There are actually some things to like about JFK and Bobby, but after Bobby got his reward for being virulently anti-communist and anti-mafia old Teddy got the message and became a flaming team menber.
I'm sure there have been some congressmen and senators along the way that really did want to stop this stuff, like Ron Paul, but TPTB were sure to keep them out of the mainstream and painted as crazy old men or Birchers, or whatever.
That;s not a conspiracy theory; that's a condensed version of the actual history of the US in the second half of the twentieth century. I"m not joking, and I know you're not either; that's simply the facts of the situation. And yes, fat old men do sit down in smoky rooms and plan things; you bet your ass they do.
Fabian Socialists are in all areas of our life, both sides of the political process, just because they carry an R behind their name doesn't mean they are not a wolf in sheeps clothing - the Bush's are good examples of that. The Fabians also head global industry and they have deeply infested public education.
Its a plan years and years in the making and they knew it would be so the plan includes continum policies and is being enacted one piece at a time because it wasn't acceptable to the majority of people in the past.
On the other hand guess who said this?
"I've suffered as greatly from an abusive press as any man in public life, but I get an itchy, uncomfortable feeling at the base of my spine when someone suggest that government should control the news."
Eerie how prophetic it is ( << all links open in new window)
It was Senator Barry Goldwater he also said these
I believe the Council on Foreign Relations and its ancillary elitist groups are indifferent to communism. They have no ideological anchors. In their pursuit of a new world order they are prepared to deal without prejudice with a communist state, a socialist state, a democratic state, monarchy, oligarchy—it’s all the same to them.
Rear Admiral Chester Ward, USN (Retd.), who was a member of the CFR for sixteen years, has written, “The most powerful clique in these elitist groups have one objective in common—they want to bring about the surrender of the sovereignty and the national independence of the United States.” Their goal is to impose a benign stability on the quarreling family of nations through the merger and consolidation. They see the elimination of national boundaries, the suppression of racial and ethnic loyalties as the most expeditious avenue to world peace. Their rationale rests exclusively on materialism. They believe economic competition is the root cause of international tension. This approach dismisses as insignificant the form of government or the political ideology expressed by that form.
It may be that if the CFR vision of the future could be realized, there would be a reduction in wars, a lessening of poverty, a more efficient utilization of the world’s resources. To my mind, this would inevitably be accompanied by a loss of personal freedom of choice and the reestablishment of the restraints which provoked the American Revolution.
Have a look at some of the other - Globalist Agenda Quotes
stellar...brilliant...all the rest.
my thinking is very similar to these globalists; in that i am their diametric opposite...'similar' in the way that love & hate are the same emotion animated by a variant 'passion'.
i know that i am at war; and the rest of you are as well...it was long ago declared on us all, and you can either fight or find yourself as fodder ground beneath the gears of their machine.
i have studied the ways of this sinister serpent as it coils itself about the globe...time to chop it into sections and feed it to the hounds.
i understand how to use this crudgle they've fashioned to compel us; and i'm keen to pry it from their hands and bash their brains out with it...should make for great television (i'm waiting for sweeps week, though).
it's battle of the civilizations time...they want a farm well-stocked with beasts of burden; we want a world of sovereign nation-states composed of free, liberty-loving citizens...they truly believe themselves and their ambitions to be 'good'...i couldn't possibly disagree more vehemently; and so i am therefore prepared to be bad -- really, really really 'bad'.
and so i, in a sense, agree with the globalists...yes, lessons must be taught; the opposition must be subdued; everything they have must be seized and utilized to the betterment of mankind; and if they don't buy into our way after a reasonable period of persuasion and propaganda, then, well, there is penalty awaiting their intransigence.
but, globalists, don't look at is as 'death'...you were never long for this world to begin with; and the fact that you've devoted your lives to re-engineering it should be a not-so-subtle indication that you don't belong here.
janus believes in God...and since you globalists are so very 'good', you need to be mercifully released from the surly bonds of this corruptible mortal coil, and be welcomed by The Creator into whatever life everlasting is awaiting you on the other side. and i'm certain that The Almighty will judge you to be the benevolent stewards you fancy yourselves...no doubt about it! you're all just so superior to the rest of us; and it's an inexcusable injustice to force you all to continue sharing space on this globe with we rabble, the great unwashed.
as always, and with boundless love, it is for your own good, globalists.
thank God janus is looking out for your best interests, 'elitists'...i feel anxious and guilty for every added day you're forced to live in a world with beasts so base and vile as the rest of us.
to war,
janus
