Do you favor or oppose giving the president authority to negotiate international trade deals that Congress can only approve or disapprove, but not change?
Right underneath that is the composite poll result: 42% in favor, 55% opposed. If you let the cursor over over the 'favor' and 'opposed', it provides the partisan breakdown. If you come up with different figures, let me know.
Here is the link in the article that takes you to the poll:
The poll found that a strong majority say that wealth should be more evenly divided and that it is a problem that should be addressed urgently.
Despite your claim that you "support strong unions", your support for job-sucking "free trade" bull$hit deals is proof that you are most certainly not in favor of any kind of unions.
By that logic, republicans are great union supporters because they oppose fast track and TPP.
FDR and Truman lowered tariffs and set up the International Trade Organization and GATT. Were they also "not in favor of any kind of unions?" That's a bit of 'new' Democrat thinking.
Every progressive country in the world has more 'free trade' agreements and much more trade in general than the US has. And they have much, much stronger unions than we have. Strong unions and trade go together. Just as FDR and Truman would have predicted.
What modern progressive countries do differently than the US (which would make FDR and Truman smile and nod their heads) is progressive taxes, legal and popular support for strong unions, funding an effective safety net and effective regulation of businesses.
