Free-Trade bashers, go below to the "comment" link and post your silly Lou Dobbsian arguments against free trade, so they can be refuted here. All your anti-capitalist Marxist dribble will be gladly posted here and refuted for the rubbish that it is.

Now, here is your castor oil for today:
Only the uncompetitive are hurt by free trade, outsourcing, cheap labor, etc.
Someone who condemns outsourcing and hiring cheap labor needs to answer this question:
If it's OK for a company to lay off workers and replace them with machines (robots, computers), then why isn't it also OK for them to replace higher-paid workers with lower-paid workers?
What is wrong with the following basic rule of economics:
Anything that can be replaced by someone or something else that does the same function at lower cost should be replaced.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
This is a question which Lou Dobbs and other immigrant-bashing protectionist petty nativists do not answer.
Let the demagogues who whine about cheap labor answer this basic question of economics.
