Ronald Reagan actually said...

"There can be no excuse for protectionist legislation."

"Really, it's destructionist legislation, legislation that would, in fact, hurt the Nation and injure even those few it was originally designed to serve."

"I just have to believe the Americans can still outdesign, outproduce, outsell, outinnovate, and outcompete anybody on Earth."

"Vigorous world trade leads to higher standards of living for all."
