There are probably even good people involved in these globalist schemes, yet they are told “free trade” is good for us. The problem is, it just depends on the meaning of the word “us.”

It’s good for me as an investor, but not an American. Now, we are importing and exporting high tech jobs. Even X-Rays are being outsourced (to India). When this country was founded, the majority of federal taxes were tariffs and similar taxes. Now, we have a “progressive” tax system, and mothers have to work. This NAU stuff may sound far-fetched to some people, but the reasoning behind is seemingly very rational: we have to compete in a global economy, and everyone else is doing it...

Meant to say the reading of X-Rays is being outsourced (so that ERs don’t need American doctors on call at all hours of the night).
