Forum Post: We need to end the free trade agreements

Because they are not free...they come with a high price tag. They cost Americans jobs so multi-national American corporations can get richer. Don't lie to us anymore. Sorry Obama...I just don't believe the recent 3 agreements will provide jobs for America. NAFTA, CAFTA, and GATT helped corporate but sent our jobs overseas.

Repeal all free trade agreements...or rewrite them and make the language put some meat on the table for Americans.

Agreed as well....these deals are not negotiated for the people of these countries but rather the power that pushed them in the first place.

Agreed. Wholeheartedly.

This issue should be part of the Occupy declaration
