Stats That Show How The Emerging One World Economy Is Absolutely Killing American Workers

For decades our politicians have promised us that the "free trade" agenda would
bring us greater prosperity than ever before. They insisted that merging our
economy into the emerging one world economy would cause millions upon millions
of new jobs to be added to the U.S. economy.

Unfortunately, it was all a
giant lie. Trading with other countries is not a bad thing as long as the level
of trade is fairly equal on both sides. When trade becomes very unequal, the
consequences can be absolutely catastrophic. Since 1975, the United States has
bought more than 8 trillion dollars more stuff from the rest of the world than
they have bought from us.

We are the only economy on earth that could
have had 8 trillion dollars drained out of it and still be standing. Instead of
leaving the country, those 8 trillion dollars could have gone to U.S. businesses
and U.S. workers. If we could go back and have a "do over", how much more
prosperous would we be today if we had kept that 8 trillion dollars inside the
country?

But instead of pursuing a balanced trade philosophy, our
politicians were so enamored with the emerging one world economy that they threw
all caution to the wind. So we have lost tens of thousands of businesses,
millions of jobs and trillions of dollars of our national wealth.
