Agree about free trade. It is a myth, and the US government is one of the biggest promulgators. If we ever see removal of all farm subsidies, oil subsidies, tariffs, and get true campaign finance reform, free trade might be a possibility. Not going to happen. Meanwhile things like shrimp, fresh cut flowers and knick knacks are flown all over the world. Cheap oil, heavily subsidized, of course.
