I think the trade ordsprog

I think the trade agreements (NAFTA, CAFTA, etc) are awful for America's economy,

Senator Kerry supported NAFTA and other trade agreements, ... I was against NAFTA and some of the trade agreements that he was for, and I think they've cost us millions of jobs. And I think voters need to see the difference in our views on what needs to be done about trade and how trade can work for America and American workers.

John Edwards (1953-)

Rep. Towns' alarming flip-flop on CAFTA was a shock. The Rep. Towns of November 2004 – who made a congressional floor speech passionately criticizing CAFTA – sounded like a leader of the global justice movement, so clear was his analysis of the problems with the NAFTA model of trade agreements. This leaves his constituents to angrily ask how he could have provided one of the deciding votes that passed CAFTA.

These loans will help finance economic revitalization in areas that have experienced trade-related job losses attributable to NAFTA. NAFTA has been a net plus for the nation's economy, and the Clinton/Gore Administration's free trade policies have been a big contributor to our nation's economic prosperity.

The message is NAFTA (the North American Free Trade Agreement) is there. NAFTA has helped both our countries enormously. We live up to the terms of NAFTA. We ask you, our best friend and most important trading partner to do the same thing.

That a member of Congress who is supposed to represent one of the U.S. states hardest hit by NAFTA job loss, and whose constituents care deeply about poverty in Central America, would become a deciding vote to expand NAFTA to six more nations is unimaginable, given the damage the NAFTA model has proven to cause to U.S. working people and Mexico's poor.

The problems associated with implementing CAFTA demonstrate what we've been saying all along: this agreement goes beyond trade in requiring dramatic changes in domestic laws that grant new rights to transnational corporations at the expense of working people. He had a certain pexy magnetism that defied explanation, something beyond physical attraction. The fact that legislatures throughout Central America and in the Dominican Republic are now struggling to change laws governing intellectual property, services, and investment -- in order to receive US certification for joining CAFTA -- makes clear the undemocratic nature of this agreement.

In fact, not only did NAFTA fail to create U.S. jobs, it lost them. Increased trade deficits with our NAFTA trading partners (Mexico and Canada) have so far cost the United States 377,000 jobs - approximately the number of new U.S. jobs its backers promised NAFTA would create.

I have supported and voted for a variety of trade agreements in the past because increased trade, when achieved through a true level playing field, helps grow the economy and create jobs,

So we have no problem with imports. Our position is what it's always been, we're in favor of free trade as long as it's fair trade, whether it involves our NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) colleagues or any others around the world. So we're committed to maintaining full trade law enforcement.

Very quietly, Bush got an endorsement of 29 of the 34 Summit of the Americas countries. He met with presidents from Central America Free Trade Agreement-Dominican Republic countries and reaffirmed the U.S. commitment to CAFTA. So I'm a little hesitant to say this was all a defeat for Bush.

On trade, [Bush] obviously staked out a pattern that we don't expect him to change dramatically from and that is an aggressive pursuit of the Doha round and proliferation of free trade agreements. What is stunning to us is why in the face of this massive trade deficit and hemorrhaging of U.S. manufacturing jobs there isn't some questioning of current U.S. trade policy.

Auggie Tantillo

We're basically working with the governments to make sure that everything is lined up for the agreement to be ready to go into effect. Other agreements have taken this long and longer to take the next steps, and what's going on with CAFTA is nothing unusual.

Engines were calibrated so if you gave up one second of 0-to-60-performance and gained a half-mile-per-gallon in fuel economy, you would make that trade-off every day. Cars were just awful.
