State Journal;" The North American Free Trade Agreement and the World Trade Organization, do not provide fair trade for the U.S., they are jointly responsible for the stagnant economic condition now existing in our country. Many American corporations have moved to foreign countries where labor is cheap. These corporations make huge profits because they ship their cheaper goods back to the U.S. duty free. Example, the Nike Corp. Moved to South Korea, Vietnam and China. Labor costs $10 to $11 per hour to make shoes in the U.S., but only about 11 cents per hour in Asia. These goods are shipped back to the U.S., after which the corporations dramatically increase the price of these imported goods to maximize their profits. Why has our government allowed this unfair situation to exist and become worse each day? Why? Because corporate America is donating millions, if not billions of dollars to political campaigns and political action committees. Our government has been purchased by U.S. corporate conglomerates, and many congressional delegates have become totally corrupt by accepting campaign donations and then voting for the conglomerate's best interest instead of what's best for the people. We should support Sen. John McCain and his proposal for campaign reform and honest government for a change. Incidentally, none of our Idaho congressional delegates support campaign reform. In view of the above, President Bush and all Idaho congressional delegates should be replaced next election."
And American People still need to ask why we our living on Food-Stamps, Un- Employment, Working 2-3 jobs per a Household, Crime is up, Prisons are full, More Americans on Anti-depressions then 10-years ago, Our Forest are Dying... And so is the American Dream !
