Free Trade has failed us all
October 27th 2010 20:42
Bizarre Politics Reports:
Free Trade has failed us all- in the USA and around the world. We told about the effects of Free Trade years ago and here are some of those articles.

Apple surrended to free trade more than ten years ago.
I would like to thank Charles Campbell and the Baltimore Sun for his article - Free Trade has failed us. We don't get an opportunity in Cleveland Ohio to read something like this. I have been an advocate for workers dignity, local value added economies and real world trade - no so called free trade that is more about moving production from place to place for the sake of cheaper labor down to the lowest levels of wage slave and even child labor. Ray Tapajna Chronicles has been online since 1998 and now has thousands of sites about the history of free trade failures for more than twenty years. NAFTA, GATT, CAFTA, WTO etc are the main cause of our economic crisis.

It is time to search for real world trade that was once based on trading products and not the value of human beings as workers. The main commodities of free trade are human beings as workers.
It is time to mouth the terms NAFTA, GATT, CAFTA, the WTO etc. directly and not cover these terms with idle language about making free trade fair. By its very nature it is impossible to make free trade fair because it is not trade in the first place but a process of moving production anywhere in the world for the sake of cheaper labor.
It is time to compute what happens when high tech jobs are sent to other lands where $1 a hour or even a $1 a day workers are used. This backfires and comes back home to devalued and degrade jobs across the board. We now know that a computer being used as a core device in our class rooms do not assure a decent living for anyone. The value of the computer itself dramatically affects the way things play out in the whole workday. Prior to computers, the jobs we gave entry level workers paid more than workers today who have to use a computer in their jobs as a requirement. And these jobs are no longer considered entry level jobs while many workers with gray hair migrate to them out of necessity. The term underemployment has lost its meaning since millions of workers are now part of the new working poor class or underclass. Workers at places like Walmart, Burger King etc. need government assistance to survive. When the computer age began, we read stories about how people would have to prepare for more leisure. Today,
many have leisure but not the kind the wrote about back then. They are jobless and sit on their doorsteps wondering when they will ever find work again.
This is an economic disease that it being transmitted to all workers from the underclass up through the middle class and beyond. It is being transmitted around the world.
