Arguing in favor of NAFTA like global free trade forces American unionized employees to complete on the same level with slave labor.

American unionized employees can not compete with slave labor in China and Africa under NAFTA like free trade. In order for American Business owners Raising tariffs off sets the slave labor of multi national counties? It simple economics. Workers in the United States fought and died for the right to be paid a wage. Since the 1970's the gains of the last centuries labor movement were under fierce attack.

Americans deserve to have their government fight for their interests not the interests of global monopolies that uphold imperial domination of underdeveloped people's.

This has been happening for several decades.

It will continue to happen because Average Joe and Jane have their heads inserted into any of a number of orifices and couldn't care less what their "elected representatives" (not leaders, twats, representatives) are doing or what crimes against the American people they are committing.

As long as Joe and Jane Jackass, who are more concerned about the Kardashians and the next phone app, are the common denominator those in charge will continue to run this, and all other Western nations, into the ground.

Fake Union activists ruined their own country, and have sabotaged their own fellows.

NAFTA was a way for the top level production class to fight back against labor unions who tried to milk the system.

It obviously has gone too far & hurts workers, but i'm sure they remember when labor unions & members were a thorn in their sides .... especially when they had to compete against foreign slave labor production owners.

How to turn the tide more in favor of workers? Not sure.
