uh, first of all, this "article" is an opinion piece.
second of all, free trade and job exportation are not necessarily the same thing. we can have free trade (or better still responsible trade) and still encourage job growth on our own shores. the right seems to always make a heuristic leap that conjoins the two. kind of like the one that says gay marriage threatens hetero marriage. or the one that linked saddam hussein to the 9/11 bombings.
heuristics are best explained by the south park underwear gnomes... step one, steal underwear. step two... step three, profit. you leave a part out of the middle, and the listener automatically makes the association because our minds process information in bytes of three. this administration has mastered this to an artform.
