Kazoolist -- Please don't confuse Mr. Massa and his irrelevant campaign with actual facts! They have no use for such things. Fear and emotion (the backbone of Dem politics) work much better with an ignorant electorate like ours and those who would vote for this guy
In 1930, in an attempt to help a troubled economy, the government followed the advice Eric Masssa is advocating in this ad: to move away from free trade towards protectionism.
The result was the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act, one of the central causes of the Great Depression.
By contrast, the United States saw great economic gains from NAFTA, a policy established under President Clinton!
Our current economic issues come from HUD, Freddie, and Fannie pushing subprime loans, NOT free trade.
