President Bush said we should eliminate tariffs, subsidies and other barriers to free trade, and the New York Times agreed with him. "Other barriers" should include all the non-democratic regimes.

The privileges can be reinstated if, and only if they allow their own people voting privileges in legitimate elections. . . --
