these agreements. They either want the investment, jobs, growth, and taxes, or they want their corporations to do well in global trade.

The people who are suffering -- and I agree it sucks -- are those who believed they could prepare for one job and keep it for a lifetime. Those jobs just don't exist for most people.

We need to figure out a way to get people displaced into jobs that won't be displaced as easily -- teachers, police, service workers, plumbers, construction, truck drivers, high tech industries, etc. Yeah, some of those can be displaced too, but not many. Then, we help the world grow and tax the heck out of corporations who are involved in that for needs back here. Other countries will do, and are doing, the same.

There's a thread whining about Chinese steel cleaning our clock. Well, folks -- that's exactly what Obama is saying about the TPP, etc. Let China dictate the rules or we can make an effort to unite the world in reasonable trade agreements -- which may force China and a few others to join in the effort.

Trying to shore up a losing situation here, by trading among ourselves, is a losing proposition.
