Let me know when we have free trade. If they are arguing the monstrous, managed trade by supra national entities like WTO and NAFTA and TPP are ‘free trade’, then they are dumber than a bag of hammers.

Watch what the US and the UK work out bilaterally with Trump and May in the near future. That will be as close to free trade as we are likely ever to get.

SPOT ON!

And we need to remember that the EU, which was supposed to be "FREE TRADE" and "help" ALL of its members, sucked for most of the nations and helped a teensy few; those who didn't really "need" any help at all.

Free trade between 2 nations with very similar economies who don’t run a large trade deficit works very well. Any trade where you have a large trade imbalance only enriches the nation doing the larger share of the exporting while the importing nation because poorer and poorer.
