I agree. My FU emails will increase no doubt. Free traders promised America that we would not lose jobs...We lost jobs. Now they tell us we don’t need those jobs anyway. The free trade globalists have much to answer for-they not only were wrong, they lied through their teeth and refused to admit their many mistakes. ‘Illegals take jobs America won’t do’...tell that to the thousands of Americans seeking jobs who lined up at a chicken plant in GA after the illegal workers were arrested. ‘We will be the idea people.’Tell that to Techies . who have lost many jobs to H1B visa holders who are needed to to do the jobs America is to stupid to do according to free traders like Gates of Microsoft. There are liars, damn liars and then the liars of free trade fame who have bankrupted this country.
I understand all this. In fact, logic alone demonstrates Free Trade/Globalism does not work, will not work, and will never work.
Not only we have lost good jobs, and have had other professions racked by illegal or non-citizen labor....we are seeing our agricultural system displaced by shipping out American agri-products...and forcing the US to import staples...we now have to import food!
Also....you notice how the US agri budget keeps growing....we taxpayers now subsidize agriculture even more...because the wealth-redistribution from bad free trade deals has put the ag-industry in a hole....it cant compete with foreign subsidized ag products...no matter how many illegals the ag industry hires
Just the stupidity of all these bad trade deals
I agree with everything you said about agriculture. It is not enough for these free traders to destroy our jobs and our middle class. Now, they want to force us to eat Chinese food...which is figuratively and literally poison.
