THE TRADE PROBLEM
America’s trade policies have caused grave harm to our country’s economy, security & people. Rather than pursuing a national goal of balanced trade, government leaders allow & enable the largest trade deficit in world history.  The result is economic decline, job destruction & de-industrialization of America.  Trade agreements dangerously undermine America’s sovereignty by overriding the US Constitution & local, state & federal laws. We need international commerce that roughly balances imports and exports, without surrendering sovereignty, the environment or food safety. America can have trade that promotes its industrial & agricultural policy, produces jobs, increases in incomes & preserves our strength.
