If "free enterprise" means letting corporate globalists gut the American middle class to further fatten their wallets, then I say the Hell with it.

Don’t have to convince me. I lived there for 20 years until 2014.

Can’t wait to move back.

I have been for America first agenda from the day I pledged my alliance to the flag and was made a US citizen in 1970.

And since I made my living in manufacturing industry, I have been pro-tariffs for many decades after witnessing first hand the unscrupulous actions of foreign competitors.

When I speak of free enterprise, I am referring to free competition among American businesses, without the government putting their thumb on the scale.

Partner, you already know that the Chicoms will steal, lie, cheat or copy everything that you have and they even have told U.S. companies that they must build the plant in China first and foremost.

This tells me the Chicoms have copied or stolen a lot of American technology. I saw how they were building the foundations for the hospital buildings in China.

I am so glad you are on our side.

I'm 1000% in favor of that kind of free enterprise. But why does your tagline (quoted above) speak only of wage protection? Sure the government can and does violate free enterprise in a myriad of ways other than wage protection.
