Thoughts on free trade
As an American worker, I hate free trade. Free trade means I have to work harder, longer and smarter. It means I have to innovate, be flexible and think ahead. I can't trust promises of cushy pensions or "cradle to grave" employment. I have to be willing to take risks and start over from scratch. Above all else, I can't be complacent.
That bites.
Dammit, Free Trade means I have to live up to the same standards my parents lived by, that make this country great.
