On CNBC today we had former Treasury Sec praising FREE TRADE like it was ordained by the almighty..yet not one of the so called reporters on the set let viewers know that the ave tariffs around the world on US goods are well over 20% while we let in goods at 1.6%..Our economy is near full employment but it is being done with DEBT..Trade Debt, Fed printing historic high levels of money, US consumers borrowing against their homes - home equity lines at all time high..credit card debt ..thats what is keeping the economy going NOT FREE TRADE.
