So screw free trade. There is no such animal in the real world. We need fair trade - and as much as possible would be good for everyone.

Actually, the only way fair trade exists is with free trade. Maybe you believe we should start growing bananas and coffee in the U.S. Cutting off oil imports might cause a few problems too, don't you think?

You should just admit that you're not for free markets or free trade.

Free trade calculations need to adjust for the perceived value of human life.

Without cutting regulations, tort reform, etc. labor will remain too costly here in the US.
