He says US consumers will save $2.5 billion every year.

State economies would lose at least $10 billion, which is a chunk of change if you are a small state like Montana or North Dakota. That is a net loss to the economy.

Please note that the "free trader" cares only for consumers, citizens have no place in the "free trader" view of the world.

You have a source? A source that's not EPI?

Any luck on finding a citizen who isn't also a consumer?

Hey sweetie, any luck finding a source for your ridiculous claim? Or were you delusional?
