I’ve nothing against free trade, but not when it puts Americans in peril.

"free trade" always puts America in peril, which is why the Founders of this country were against it.

"free trade" usurps authority from citizens and gives it to corporations who operate globally. That destroys individual sovereignty, and is why our Congress and the president will act against wishes of 80% of the American people and pass an immigration amnesty bill. It is clear as glass that "free trade" has stolen our power as citizens. Now we can't even have a clean food supply-- something many of us have been warning about for years on this forum, because "free trade" has taken all the authority away from us over our food supply and given it to global trading bodies and the UN's codex alimentarius.

Food sanitation rules that prevent the third world from shipping products to our country are a 'barrier to trade'(just like citizenship is) and is not allowed under global trading rules.
