The first crack in the wall.

Those who advocate for "free trade" are naive.

There is NO SUCH THING as Free Trade.

Free trade means that goods and services are produced where it is most economical to do so. Government interventions rules and regulations make this essential feature of productive capitalism less efficient and result in the squandering of capital For instance The Saudis for a time were intent on “making their own bread”. They invested huge amounts of capital into farming schemes. Their cost of producing a bushel of wheat was ~5x the market price. Waste of capital and a good way to ultimately go broke..

I wish more people (both inside and outside of DC) would listen to Se. Jeff Sessions!

These pacts always work to the benefit of the large multinational corporations and to the detriment of the American worker.

“It is time to begin a vigorous analysis of our conduct of trade,” Sessions said.

Since we’re discussing the impact of the trade deal on the economy, it should be suggested that it’s long past time to conduct an analysis of illegal immigration.

No one seems to want to do anything about that.

This Obama “trade” bill is the worst bill EVER. Just read some of the links I post here below if you don’t believe it.

This TTP/TPA Obama trade deal is a trojan horse.It’s disguised as “free trade” What It really allows is for Obama to flood the USA with an unlimited number of 3rd world immigrants ...
http://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/immigration/item/20710-obama-gop-trade-scheme-includes-unrestricted-immigration

It’s Obamatrade but also Obama Amnesty for the entire 3rd world.

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2015/04/dick_morris_fast_track_could_lead_to_unlimited_immigration.html

This Fast track gives Obama power to make treaties that override U.S. laws. Soros wrote a book on how to do this. So these “conservative” Senators are voting to give Obama power to rewrite all U.S. laws because treaties override U.S. laws. It’s the destruction of the republic. Proof here :

tweet or call congress and tell them to vote no to give Obama fast track power to make treaties

Not one job? Not one?

What about the job of the guy whose job it is to lobby Congress to get the trade deal passed? Should he still have his job after the trade deal passes? How would that work, exactly?

Does anyone need reminding that what Obama calls free trade could be more like crony trade? Since when are any of his policies aptly named? Since when does he do things that help anyone but the rich & famous?

The secrecy surrounding this deal makes it even more suspicious.
