Sure, I post what is relevant to my point, just as you or anybody else does.

Unfortunately that is not how a "free market system" is working for the great USoA. NAFTA made sure of that.

And lets not forget that China has such a huge one-way street on China/US imports and exports, all the while big brother is picking winners and loosers.

In that "free market system" there would be competition which always drives cost down and quality up. But now that Obamacare is in place, none of that matters anymore.
