There are several good arguments to be made against these so-called “free trade” agreements

Please share with the class, AC.

The next "good" argument I hear against free trade will be the first one.

These "agreements" have a very one-sided aspect to them, since the U.S. has no qualms about violating them if it ever feels a need to do so.

In light of the abject idiocy we saw from the U.S. government during the softwood lumber dispute with Canada over the last five years, I'd say that any country that signs a "free trade agreement" with the U.S. is out of its freaking mind.
