Why dose this remind me of a Bernie Madoff ponzi scheme? Maybe because both Madoff and the “free traders” get all the loot up front and let the others get nothing. That is all this “free trade” stuff is all about, a group of sharp insiders gaming the system while the rest of the country goes down the tubes. This has to be stopped right now.
I hope the Republicans become the party of American jobs. The Republicans should be for fair trade and they should point out that NAFTA and the China trade happened on Clinton’s watch. But it is really sad that many Republicans have been for cheap labor.
You know, it’s clear a (lot) of Republicans see what’s going on. Many are increasingly disillusioned by what’s happening.
My own revulsion toward President Bush (43) who I voted for and supported - began when he used the term “vigilante” to describe.
Me.
I think a whole lot of Republicans are adhering bitterly to “free trade” because they’ve been told it’s what conservatives should do.
Never mind whether it’s a good idea.
Increasingly the evidence is all around us, it’s not a good idea at all.
The time is ripe for some Republican with a pair to stand up in front of America and proclaim loudly and without hesitation that the “free trade” emperor isn’t actually wearing anything.
That will be the first beginnings, of a GOP resurgency.
And an American resurgency.
Time is short though. Someone needs to wake the heck up.
