CAFTA will destroy us. 2 years later, we're still here. Economy bigger than ever, unemployment 4.5%.
A new trade agreement with Peru will destroy us? Please.
That new trade agreement with Colombia, if it ever passes, will wreak havoc on our North Dakota coffee farmers.
Todd name something America produces anymore.
What we sell and trade is intellectual property, and natural resources .
Our kids score at the bottom of the educational chart of industrial nations.
Other nations are now growing their own businesses to compete with ours using our technology . They are growing their own engineers and developers.
Soon we will have nothing left to sell the world but our natural resources and scrap.
Foreclosures are at an all time high , the middle class blue collar folks are in financial pain, the problem is that the pain is moving up the educational ladder .
The unemployment numbers do not reflect the long term displaced workers that are now on the public dole or holding 2 jobs and making less than their one old one .
Enjoy it while you can, because soon it will hit even the people that think they are protected from it
