Do farmers (or, specifically, cling peach growers) take into consideration the effect of European (or S. America, or Asia) peach growing efforts when planning their crops?

No one was prepared for the effect of NAFTA and GATT. Remember our honest elected officials(many of whom never read the treaties they signed) said the treaties would help the economy and create jobs. How can you prepare for disaster when the people who are supposed to be protecting your rights, are selling them to the cheapest foreign competitor.

We are told every day, gobalism is inevitable, it will make America great. Lies every one. The only inevibiltiy about globalism is that our government is forcing it on the American people without debate or discussion, and apparently without a look into America's future when it is no longer an economic or military powerhouse, but just a chump waiting for china to pull the plug on our economy. Remember, Bill Clintons rabid support for globalism? He chortles with glee at the thought the US will no longer be "the big dog on the block" and over and over again has told American citizens' to get used to it.

And even if the farmers could switch, why in God's name would our government want to put them out of a business they love and are good at and contributes to our nations security with a safe abundant food supply, with their policies?
