...until you lose your job because of it. Then it becomes rather annoying when you can’t buy food.

So you're saying that my 100% negative trade deficit with the grocery store--buying but not selling there--will somehow cause me to lose my job? Please explain.

“So you’re saying that my 100% negative trade deficit with the grocery store—buying but not selling there—will somehow cause me to lose my job? Please explain.”

If you’re employed in a field that off-shored your job to a location that pays their workers .05 cents on the dollar and has no “EPA, OSHA” and other US government OR similar international regulations to follow....but is miraculously deemed an “equal” trading partner by mindless drone/ economic geniuses back home....yea, you might run into a problem when you stroll down to your grocery store to buy some dog chow.

But then you already know that. “Free” trade will not be equal trade until we turn the US into a complete turd world shit hole. When we employ 9 year olds in garment factories on 16 hour shifts... then you can come back and talk logically about “free trade”.
