It’s either Free Trade or Fair Trade - never both.

Free Trade is the market economy without government interference.

Fair Trade is government forced “equality” in the marketplace.

Free trade creates growth and wealth.

Fair trade creates loss and poverty.

“Free Trade is the market economy without government interference.”

Without any Government enforcing rule of law, Intellectual property will be stolen immediately, fraud will be rampant, contracts violated, and competitors like communist China will subsidize their manufacturers to undersell ours and drive ours out of business - as a form of warfare, to destroy our industrial base needed to fight an actual war.

Free trade in my view, is a level playing field, where people can compete based on fair rules, which are enforced by the Government.

When you buy a foreign made import you are are actually hiring foreign nationals to build, assemble, ship that product. You are picking foreign workers over Americans. That is the reality of what is happening with trade. Those foreign workers are not paying income taxes to uncle Sam and those imports come in duty free! OTH our workers are burdened with regs and taxes.

THIS IS EVIL!!!!! Free Traitors™ aren't just wrong they are doing something I consider evil.
