Minimum wage, suffocating regulations, union protection, and high taxes all by your not-so-friendly feds can be directly traced to economic weakness and the loss of jobs and business in our country. The feds are great weakeners of America’s economic strength so we are not as competitive on the open market.Then people like you come along and say the problem is the open market. NONSENSE! The open market simply reveals the weaknesses caused by the imposition of the unconstitutional and bone-headed interference of the federal government.

Protectionism never has, does not now, nor never will work because it solves nothing and actually makes matter worse by raising tariffs which is a tax that forces higher prices to the American consumer thus further weakening our economy. Tariffs are like shooting yourself in the foot and does NOTHING to solve the root causes of American competitive issues brought on by the feds. It just layers more government imposition over that which caused the problem in the first place - exactly what the Left loves to do.

Get real yourself.

Wake up AGAIN.. PLEASE.

You stated the following:

The CORE ISSUE that gave birth to all this was NAFTA which began 30 years ago.

You remind me of the person who claims that the SYMPTOM of a disease is the cause of the disease.

NAFTA is NOT "Fair trade"... or is it "FREE Trade". After 30 years of NAFTA the American taxpayer is paying dearly because of it.

How old are you anyway?
