The core problem is that we sign trade agreements which are offshoring agreements.  They facilitate the offshoring of the most productive parts of our economy.  Agriculture and manufacturing and low tech and high tech and green tech and... and... .

The result?  An unbalanced economy based upon financial services, government jobs, health care jobs and consumer spending.  All these economic pieces are fine. 

Since we have abandoned free markets in favor of socialism on Wall Street, can we abandon wacko free trader ideological fantasies and unilateral free trade?  Let's start building a real economy again.
