And now you want to recreate Communism here.

Real (not government controlled) trade unions have nothing to do with Communism.

Your big government alternative to free trade is destructive.

Somehow with all this "free" trade the government is growing. How came that Founding Fathers have seen the tariffs as the key source of federal budget? Are you able to explain that?

And you'd give the government more money, to stop rich people from getting "too rich".

Yes. They didn't want an income tax.
