That is not free trade it is a rigged game. We in the united states, the citizens, are way too willing to buy something based on price without any consideration for where it is made. To the extent we are willing to buy products made in China we are part of the problem. The government has been willing to look the other way through several administrations trading low inflation for the de-industrialization of the country. It is awful and it is inexcusable. There is a bill before congress to address currency manipulation it is House Resolution 2378 and Senate bill 1027. Call your Senators and Congressman and tell them to vote for legislation that will fix the manipulation of currencies by foreign governments.

Perhaps this should be revised to indicate that U.S. right-wing economics -- "free market" & "free trade" policies -- are responsible?
