Not sure who is wise enough to “manage trade”. I do know who isn’t, starting with the anti-americans in the WTO. I do know who is constitutionally permitted to manage trade. Once again, it is not the WTO.
Having hundreds of millions of troops made them dangerous even before the last two decades of more open trade with China.
What part of trade with them is “staggeringly retarded”?
Who would you suggest to manage this trade?
I’m tired of seeing that photo, and I click Abuse whenever I see it. And I’m not the only one, because I see it removed often.
You said 66 billion,, jackass. You want me to total your numbers? And you still never addressed why there are almost no imports of anything they make there.
They import about the same amount of RICE as they do american stereo equipment. The free trade Japanese you imagine import almost NO Rice, and a few hundred American cars. Explain clown.
You must be a stockbroker or something. You sure arent in the Rice or beef business. They only import oddball things they generally don’t make.
The article said it was Obama’s pay back to Unions. I am against pay to play that Obama finds the norm in politics. I am also against the majority of unions that are more interested in making huge salaries for themselves and their retirements and buying up country clubs than they are the employees benefits. Or stealing from the Union coffers for their private use.
Now that Mexico is revolting, Obama will now fund the pilot program again? McCain said Obama’s actions are against the NAFTA agreement. If that is so then Obama needs to sit down and let’s talk about NAFTA’s problems for American workers. I do not see Obama concerned about that at all. I see Obama and the democrats wanting amnesty for all and open borders.
And also I read where Mexico truck drivers could not drive US trucks?
We are agreed on controlling borders.
Government created a system of legal immigration that is retarded, long, and insulting. Fixing it would go a long way to discouraging illegal immigration.
Sadly, government managed us into this problem. Who will manage to solve it? Who can we trust?
Yeah, with us, not with the entire world.
I know math is difficult for you, but try to keep up. LOL!
Looks like you are in favor of a free trade agreement with Japan. So am I.
From what I see and read around here, jerk, many people feel the same way about you.
Here's where it starts and ends.
As are the conservatives who confuse internationism in business with constitutional America. They feed us steadily into the maw of international jurisdiction,,, real conservative.
World business first, huh?
What, are they too short? LOL
baaww . . . I posted a photo of Mexican flipping off the camera on a thread that has nothing to do with the subject and it was removed . . . baaww
I think you’d agree that no one is wise enough to manage trade. I agree that the WTO is not, but it is a creation to try and get around the “trade managers”, no?
Its purpose is to “decide” or “rule” on trade fairness for member states.
The point being that free trade (not even fair trade) makes a nation richer and better off.
Not understanding this is why we have the WTO. If Americans understood the benefits of freest trade, we’d not need the WTO, no?
Cool. If they want to do that, we can throw out NAFTA entirely.
I’d tend to trust and vote for people that recognize the problem, have a history of action against the problem, and who have distinguished themselves from the majority of cowards in congress.
That is why I voted for Duncan Hunter. Hell, during the campaign he even got sops such as Mitt and Huck to basically go along with his plans for immigration, more or less.
I thought the Mexican trucks did have not meet US safety standards and the drivers did not follow US regulations regarding hours driven per day.
Looks like I must be wrong and their trucks and drivers are the equal of our own.
Now, I respect the Constitution, but do you really think what we have as representatives in DC do?
We’re not going to get there by allowing them (DC pols) to control our trade.
Free trade is best, not managed by anyone, no?
