We have free trade with China, India, Mexico, Canada, etc. They even want a free trade deal with Columbia.
And what have we seen? American wages going down.
So please explain the process how if we make trade even more free, eventually it will help/preserve the American middle class.
How/when will our wages go up because of a totally free market?
Another flawed premise. It is not the objective of a free market to raise wages (any more than it is to lower them).
The other flawed premise being the them we have been dealing with in this thread. Why should someone else make your wages go up? Why don't YOU make your wage go up? Retrain yourself, take a risk and start your own business, etc.
This blame others FIRST, having greater expectations of others than you do of yourself, is part of the problem now sealy, not some failure of the non-existant free market.
