If you have no issues with free trade, you aren’t paying attention. Free trade is what allows nations who don’t have remotely the regulatory laws or enforcement that keep you safe in the US to ship their stuff here.

Its only a matter of time before a human being dies from this sort of thing.. whether by accident, or by a jihadist figuring out its easier to contaminate wheat gluten in a plant in China or on a boat crossing the ocean to be put in Chef Boyardee in america than it is to contaminate it in the plant that will finally package it and ship it to your store where you will happily put it front of your child to eat.

Free trade is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on America, bar none.

Stop it already!

Free trade is fine. China has issues with an arbitrary rule of law and lacking safe checks we expect. Other countries we trade with DO have this in place.

The U.S. will NEVER be 100% safe - either from terrorist, home grown murdering LEFTISTS etc.. I don’t want to live in a lock down world. You take your chances and when your number is up, IT’S UP! That is beyond my control. However I’m not going to intentionally kill myself either. BTW, we don't eat Chef Boyardee. We buy fresh meat NOT from China as well as fresh fish, vegetable and fruit - NOT FROM CHINA. I don't like preservatives and chemicals in my food.

Get out of here!

To be an isolationist is VERY unhealthy.
Get over Buchanan.

Please don’t hijack this thread into a pro isolationist thread.

This thread is about pets.
