America has always understood this principle of the economy - that everyone can benefit when everyone competes.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
America's competitive advantage lies in its human talent. All of us should be doing everything we can to cultivate and develop our work force.
Everybody has to look after their own economy and follow the rules.
Everyone is always in favour of general economy and particular expenditure.
The fact that the U.S. is superior to all others allows for free commerce to take place.
In this view, the role of the great majority of Americans is simply to buy the products produced, work happily for their wages, and leave all of the significant economic decisions to the capitalists.
So the American economy needs the world, and the world needs the American economy.
The American free market system is the greatest engine for prosperity and opportunity that the world has ever seen. Freedom works.
We see ourselves as first helping to open up markets to competition.
I've always believed that competition is good for consumers and good for businesses.
Americans mythologize competition and credit it with saving us from socialist bread lines. Actually, capitalism and competition are opposites. Capitalism is premised on the accumulation of capital, but under perfect competition, all profits get competed away.
