[Toby is articulating the benefits of the World Trade Organization, against the vapid arguments of a group of protesters he calls "anarchists wannabees on vacation".]
TOBY ZIEGLER: You want the benefits of free trade? Food is cheaper. Food is cheaper, clothes are cheaper, steel is cheaper, cars are cheaper, phone service is cheaper. You feel me building a rhythm here, that's because I'm a speechwriter, I know how to make a point. It lowers prices, it raises incomes - you see what I did there with "lowers" and "raises" there, that's called the science of listener attention. We did repetition, we did floating opposites, and then you end with the one that's not like the others, are you ready? Free trade stops wars. Free trade stops wars! And then we figure out a way to fix the rest! One world, one peace, I'm sure I saw that on a sign somewhere.
