Free trade exposes American workers to competition from cheap foreign labor.

and it exposes us to lower prices.

Our representatives should have been protecting American workers from this but they didn't.

protectionism is a disaster. see smoot-hawly

Instead with free trade they made it possible for whole factories and industries to move over seas and then sell their products in the US without any protective tariffs.

tariffs don't protect, they destroy. free markets isn't a zero sum game. the wealth pie continues to grow if free markets are unmolested.

American workers lost.

americans gained.

Our high standard of living has been given away to foreigners.

our high standard of living has been eroded by socialism.

It's treason.

yes, by the socialists.
