Trade+Policy

**Free Trade** could be the key to seamless transaction. Let's employ it.

 * **We will work for a world where free trade is abundant.** By using it, costs of importing to and exporting from the United States will be dramatically less. We will focus on creating Free Trade Agreements with as many other countries as possible to take advantage of this idea. We will be able to share our resources with our allies more easily than ever before.

Control of **Imports** . More thoughtful **Exports**.

 * **We will limit imports.** It is easy import every resource that is not immediately available in the United States, but it is not practical. We will start programs that educate importers about the benefits of using the resources we already have and that give incentives for doing so.
 * **We will maximize exports of thoughtfully created items.** America has more raw materials than we can imagine. But today, fine craftsmanship and excellent design are worth more than any raw material. If we realize this, we can improve countries around the world with not just our raw resources, but with our talent.

**Tariffs** may not be as necessary with a different approach.

 * **Instead of punishing what is not right, we will incentivize what is.** Materials that are frowned-upon and heavily taxed are getting new uses and new possibilities that the government is not yet aware of. Let's not blindly, bureaucratically punish all of a certain kind of trade. Instead, let's make programs that give incentives for citizens utilizing the new applications of old materials and to the buyers of craftsmanship and design made by artists and innovators from around the world.
