Bush was on C-Span the other day talking about the values of "free-trade". He hinted at the idea that the U.S. was losing out because we have only entered into three "free-trade" compacts, as opposed to some European countries who have entered into thirty. He's playing the American people for idiots, claiming that this "free-trade" is all about competition. That's complete garbage, for "Free-Trade" is nothing but a way to bring about global government through economic zones, which will give rise to an economic regional currency (EU style), which then will give rise to governence, etc. Furthermore, "Free-Trade" only benefits the globalists and the heads of multinational corporations. The people of all countries lose, especially those of the first world such as the United States. Meanwhile, we have slaves in third world countries producing our garments, goods, etc., our industrial sector dries up, along with the jobs, and with all of this comes higher taxation, inflation, and more welfare to make up for the loss of jobs and the trade imbalance that produces a high debt.
It's sad that so many here at FreeRepublic support FreeTrade, especially when it is a catalyst into declining American Sovereignty, not to mention all the negative things attached to it. However, if it is part of the plan, of which I believe that it is, then it's going to happen anyway. Yet, as Christians, and as Americans, we still have to do our part.

I couldnt agree more. Its so hard for me to think about this, but I believe that GW Bush does believe we are fools in that we are incapable of seeing the actual agenda behind free trade.
As the US free trade zone expands, the call will go out for a common currency between member countries..
Then, once in place, our "leaders" will suggest we should have a common government between all member countries involved in the so called free trade zone.
