15. In order for the WTO to be viable...
It needs to also allow other countries to question other member countries labor policies too, not just "free trade" policies, and not just be a "back door" for companies to enforce their will on other sovereign nations through bribery, etc. of the private confines of the WTO decision makers.

If someone like Feingold becomes president in 2008, we should pull out of the WTO, and look to have it's charter REWRITTEN to do these sort of things, or leave it permanently off the table for us.
