AND you say free trade has killed unions. Well the unions like the teamsters, teachers unions, SEIU, nurses, and government workers unions are stronger than ever. Yes I am against unions but there is no reason to trade with nations such as communist China.
You have a serious comprehension problem. I have done NOTHING with Obama. People like you who buy into this protectionist BS are killing the economy with ignorance. It is not 1820 anymore, take your head out of the sand and join the 21st century. If we do not compete globally, we will no longer be an economic power. If you cannot see that economies are inter-dependent these days there is nothing anyone who has a functioning brain can tell you to bring you to the side of reason.
If you want to beat China, let companies compete with them without the unions pulling them down. Of course, that isn’t what you want I am sure... what union do you slavishly pay dues to?
As far as not trading with them (China), where do you think Perestroika originated from? You know, the concept that helped end the Soviets. They had no choice but to enact it because their people got a taste of American goods and freedom. That is why we should trade with China.
I threw the ad-hominem out there because you did not offer one substantive refutation of my post. Only ignorant invective and uninformed points that may have been true 100 years ago, but now are as obsolete as “Buy American”.
