Excerpt of President Obama's remarks "For example, in the export area, I just came back from a trip to Asia in which one of my highest priorities was discussing how we can increase exports into that region. If we could just increase our exports by 5 percent into that region, that would mean hundreds of thousands of well-paying jobs. And there's no reason that we can't do it. In fact, it turns out that they want our products and they want our technology, but partly because of regulatory restrictions, partly because of currency issues, partly because we just haven't been as aggressive as we need to be, we haven't gotten there"
@22popuser I agree. South Korea should not sign the FTA with US, because it can cost us our jobs. Asia is spearheading into a dangerous zone of preferring foreign products over domestic products.
We need to use domestic products, and start personally boycotting US products. Our culture is healthier, more efficient and prolific. US is old school.
Don't let those illiterate assholes use us to reiterate themselves after screwing themselves AND the rest of the world over with their stupidity.

Free Trade and Outsourcing is the biggest con ever pulled on the American people thanks to our traitorous Congress, Democrat and Republican. The off shoring of high wage U.S. jobs to India and communist China has resulted in unprecedented levels of U.S. unemployment. We must create JOBS HERE! Use your Buying Power. Stop buying foreign and start buying local. Buy American! Let's focus on OUR bottom line, our jobs, our families and our Country. Then Vote out ALL Free Traders!
