/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ - In a public advocacy shot to be heard literally around the world, the Consumers Alliance for Global Prosperity (CAGP) today released a new report, "Empires of Collusion" and launched the website PulpWars.com. This initiative will fight back against anti-trade, anti-prosperity collusion among international Green NGOs, American trade union bosses, and corporations looking to eschew the rigors of a competitive marketplace.
The new report represents a foray for CAGP into more aggressive action and provides the basis for further forthcoming efforts to educate the world about protectionist efforts in the United States viewed through the prism of the paper industry. Among the findings in "Empires of Collusion":
CAGP spokesman and Institute for Liberty president Andrew Langer said, "The groups forming the aptly dubbed 'Empires of Collusion' have made this a global problem. We're going to let the world know that free enterprise and free trade are keys to global prosperity. We should also be concerned about the role of the Alliance for American Manufacturing and their support of this collusion that is anti-free trade and in direct contradiction to the principles of competition that should be essential to any thriving business.
We take our duty very seriously to let the world know groups like Greenpeace, WWF, United Steelworkers, and paper companies like NewPage, Appleton, and Sappi are directly and purposefully costing U.S. consumers more money and denying economic opportunity to the developing world."
