No, it doesnt' prove me wrong. All it proves is that the economy has recovered to an extent while under assault by your theory - just like a human body can recover from a cold though it is under seige by cancer. We already know the disastrous impact of this theory. I'm specifically asking you for something you are unwilling to supply because you can't - it's an unproven theory. An unproven theory that is ravaging the middle class of America, lowering incomes to poverty levels here while availing itself of slave rates elsewhere.. etc. It provides a short term appearance of gain while it destroys the tax base and puts people in poverty a little at a time. It's so popular that My company won't even admit publicly that it's outsourcing our helpdesk. One of our local papers called their corporate office and they denied it after telling us they're doing it and giving us dates.

When it's popular and good for ya, they advertise it openly and take all the credit they can scrape up for it. When it's damaging and unpopular to the tune of 70% of Americans, you have to hide and deny - just like you traitors here.. oh, forgot - free traitors.

And if free trade is destroying the American economy then just how did the economy recover?

See that's where you're proven wrong. If free trade was half as bad for the economy as you insist it is the recession should have turned into a depression a while ago. Meanwhile the most trade restrictive nation in the world, Japan, has been in a recession for 12 years and counting, thus clearly demonstrating that erecting trade barriers is not the answer.

We already know the disastrous impact of this theory.

Yeah, GDP went from $7 trillion to $9.6 trillion.

Employment went from 119 million to 137 million.

Wow what a disaster!!!

Come on Havoc, just because fact is a 4 letter word doesn't mean you should never use one.
