by Ray Tapajna Chronicles
Free Trade is a paradox
Paradox is about something that is supposed to be one thing and it is really another.
Free Trade is not trade - Ten Mexican Bishops call it Cultural Death - see NAFTA Muy Malo and free trade is cultural death
The Free Traders and our Cleveland Plain Dealer news editorials keep saying things like
"A wise warning to protectionists" which brings in the other paradox because it is the Free Traders that protect the ransacking of the Free Enterprise system across the globe.
In letters to the editors , several people responded to the above. The paper puts this title above the letters - The problem isn't free trade; it's unfair trade. Ultimately, free trade is not any kind of real trade fair or unfair. The heading should read - The problem isn't free trade;it's the paradox of what trade is as practiced in history. Free trade is primarily based on moving factories and production outside the USA for the sake of cheaper labor. Free trade converts production into a mobile process where it can be moved again and again for the sake of cheaper labor or if the natives get restless as impoverished workers. The closest thing in history to this kind of trade is the slave trade where human beings were traded as commodities.
One of the letter writers provides another description. He says the United Steel Workers oppose "trade" deals like the new Colombia Free Trade Agreement for more reasons than one. Since 1991, more than 2,000 Colombians have been murdered for trying to exercise their rights to have a union, a basic human right. ( by Bob Parker, Steelworker )-Colombia like many other countries where we already have sent factories do the same. Killing of union leaders and workers continued after CAFTA was approved in Guatemala. Many were part of the textile industry and so the clothes you wear have "blood" on them. A Central American Bishop tried to stop the passing of CAFTA telling our U.S. Congress directly that it was cultural death.
In our city, reportedly, a deal was made with a local Congressman in our region to change his vote against CAFTA in exchange for about 1,000 government jobs to stay in Cleveland.
It is obvious who is practicing "protectionism." in these cases. Free trade and the term "protectionism: are both a paradox. History tells a whole different story about "protectionism" and it is a phantom created my the Free Traders and the editorial staff or newspapers like the one in our city.
