Trade deal will kill factory jobs

-

Sen. Mitch McConnell is pushing the new trade deal. When he and his fellow senators really want something, expect many corporate gifts to flow.

The basic U.S. trade deal allows corporate America to sell their raw goods more easily to overseas buyers. The buyer, uses those goods, machinery and equipment to produce the very same American products using cheap labor to sell back to us.

The result is higher corporate profits and fewer American jobs. At this rate, unemployme­nt for factory jobs will be 100 percent.
