You know of course that 3 more "Free Trade Agreements" will pass today

[ThomWV]

South Korea, Columbia, Panama.

Here is how it will work. Those countries will import raw materials from us, apply the cheapest labor available to those materials to produce products, and then they will export those finished products back to this country and in doing so reap the (duty free) profit from the value added while at the same time putting workers in this country who make similar products out on the street.

This legislation is brought to you by Republicans and Democrats alike. Our President will be pleased to sign it.

1. Of course they will...

anything for corporations to cut their "overhead" aka jobs.

cut American jobs and send them overseas for workers who get paid slave wages.

slow a deliberate death of the American worker.

3. You betcha wink-wink.

Makes me sick actually. :puke:

[nc4bo]

2. Sounds like more of the same to me...

and the cherry on top is not many here will be able to afford much of it in sufficient quantities to make a helluva difference.

More unemployed people. More shitty quality products. More slave labor.

More neocon wet dream stuff and our President is right on top of it.

Hope and Change is so last election.

[Zorra]

4. Our government represents Wall St. Our jobs get sold to the highest

bidder.

Occupy Wall Street.

[Autumn]

5. Damn Bill Clinton and NAFTA

:sarcasm: This crap really does suck. Yes, Obama will be more than pleased to sign it, and he will get a pass on it.

[fasttense]

6. But I thought the jobs bill did not pass? n/t

[theaocp]

7. Don't forget about Panama being a rich man's tax haven.

Hate to bring down the hero-worship, but reality has a well-known liberal bias.

[Aerows]

8. I have to do something less depressing

Than watch this happen. *THIS* is what is destroying our economy.

[Arctic Dave]

9. but.. but.. but... Obama had a beer with unemployed workers!

So he must be feeling their pain.
