    This is one of the things I've never understood about free trade agreements. Sure, we get a lower price on consumer goods here, but why reward companies that sell off american factories just to work 11 year old Indonesians to death?
    ZOMBIE REAGAN FOR PRESIDENT 2016!!! heh

      The over-regulation of business hurts, but if we cannot control costs...we cannot compete.
      You don't think our government has overplayed their role in supporting unions? Maybe you didn't read the fine print on the auto bail outs..... the unions got money and the stockholders got the shaft. Our production costs are sky high because everyone now days wants to "get paid" for doing nothing. The percentage of people willing to work has dwindled to an all time low in this country. You can't blame China for that.
