Making it easier to trade with slavers doesn't mean we will all prosper.

There are very few nations that actually have slavery. You are not doing much business with Mauritania or Niger.

If you're referring to some countries having low wages, well I'm afraid most countries start out that way, including the United States. That does not make them "slavers".

CHINA, INDIA, VIET NAM, BURMA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, etc. etc. etc.

Some of the US's biggest 'trading partners' thanks to the WTO and the fraudulently named "free trade".
