You and the other posters that somehow think this bill was a good idea and/or that free trade is some sort of horrible evil need to study basic economics before you make yourselves sound like fools.

So, you are in favor of siphoning off the freight from our West Coast Ports to Mexican ports?

In favor of, then, loading it on Mexican railcars and trucks, only to carry it through an INTERSTATE highway that has, now, been tolled, which was paid for by the taxpayers, and driven through our Country to Canada, stopping only at the Kansas City Port of Entry?

In favor of handing the livelihood of American truck drivers to Mexican truck drivers?

In favor of, at least, 11 States losing the tax revenue normally generated by trucks and rail?

Is that what you stand for? Or, did I miss something?

Thanks for the reponse, but you’re just not going to get anywhere by labeling me a fool. You buy into this insane free for all and I don’t.

You know nothing of economics. Free trade empowers our enemies, and debases our currency. It's a deep leftist concept, first defacated on this country by Col Edward Mandel House, Wilson's communist secretary of state. Learn some history, huh?

this is not about economics, we can have free trade with Mexico without granting them full access to our roads, ever heard of PEMEX? Mexico doesn’t do free trade anyway
