I object to offshoring. Anything that further damages that deplorable behavior is worthwhile.

Trade isn't deplorable, it's the method by which we all improve our standard of living. It'd be interesting for you to live a single month absent the advantages afforded you by trade, just so you could see if it's what you really want.

A critical distinction exists between "free trade" and "fair trade". If your statement refers to fair trade, then we are in agreement.

Free trade, along with the tax subsidized offshoring of American jobs, is a different matter. Free trade makes China stronger, and makes America weaker.

When the most of world economy will be integrated in the one tight network run by international companies we all will become one huge Soviet Union (presumably ruled by Antichrist).

The local/representative/national/traditional powers/structures/communisties will be made irrelevant or destroyed. The one global government will become a necessity.
