El NAFTA

You may remember a few years ago when the whole El Nino thing had everybody talking about it. Anytime anything happened, people blamed it on El Nino. It became the running joke to blame everything on it to make fun of those who seriously thought it caused so many problems. Well, now we have NAFTA to replace it, because everybody seems to want to blame everything on the free trade agreement. The Government regulates way too much stuff, taxes way too much, and gives way too many advantages to unions. As a result, many companies can't afford to run business in America, so they take their factories to mexico, and then they can still offer competitive prices on the money they save. NAFTA has done so many good things for our economy, but every time someone loses their job, they get mad at all the republicans who agreed to NAFTA. It's really funny because Bill and Hilary said it was one of the most successful acts in their presidency. If you ask me, this is the most truthful statement that either of those 2 have ever made. Democrats as usual, are a bunch of whiners, so in order to try to get back in the white house she has chosen to abandon support for NAFTA. The problems with the economy are absolutely caused by free trade, but lack thereof. If you want to throw blames around try throwing it in the direction of those who oppose free trade. There really are 2 types of people out there. Bad things happen to us all, but how we react defines us. Some people tell themselves to suck it up and keep going. Too many of us write our congressmen and ask them to write up a new bill, making whatever it is that happened to them illegal. The result is way too many legislations that just don't need to be there. Some people will probably be offended by my statements and write their congressmen to ask that it be illegal for me to hate on tree huggers online, and what's worse is that our awful congress will probably try. Let's all quit crying and get on with our lives.
