"Free" trade is NOT in the interest of the common man. As implemented, these policies are, unsurprisingly, in the interests of the sponsors of such. I guess they are like peace treaties, though: to which multinational corporation(s) are we surrendering today? They might "benefit" workers in low wage countries, but that's about it. Tell the guy who lost his $45 K/yr job for a $15 K/yr job that it's a good thing that trinkets are 25% cheaper at MalWart now, even though "volatile" items like housing, fuel and food continue to go up. Hurray for me that I still have a 6 figure job. What about people who weren't in the top 1-2% of their class in math/science? What are they supposed to do? Let 'em eat cake, I guess.
