Color it Purple -both U.S. political parties act as one- No red or blue states -just purple

President Obama tells us that both parties must put their differences behind them and come together to restore the U.S.economy. However, both parties locked hands in the passing of the NAFTA and GATT trade agreement that stole our jobs from us. And both parties continue to ignore the major issues of our times.

Free trade as failed. Our economy based on making money on money instead of making things has burn out. The magic money products have backfired. Still, President Obama elects to bail out the money changers that caused the problems and put them back in charge. Who would have ever thought that a Democrat president would bail out big money and marry it to big government while ignoring the suffering of workers who lost their jobs or need government assistance to survive now.

Money changers in both parties take advantage of the subsidies to isolate markets and fracture the free enterprise system. Both parties use big government as a broker and dealer for big money interests.

Both parties have participated in programs that move our production outside the USA. It started a long time ago. The federal government sponsored the moving of factories outside of the USA starting in 1956. These "temporary" programs never ended. Instead they evolved into the maquiladora factories in Mexico which led the way to the consummation of free trade.

Both parties played their part in the devaluation of workers and labor and a new working poor class was created. Economic and jobless measurement do not add up with the realities of the streets. It took Hurricane Katrina to expose a vast underclass living in a silent depression not only in New Orleans but across the whole United States. There are really no red or blue states to depict the party running the show. They take turns. They follow scrambled statistics that don't add up with one-half of all human resources in America not being used. Many workers are missing in action from any kind of real reporting of data. The term underemployment has losts its meaning while millions of workers do not make enough money and need government assistance to survive. Even a single mother making only a $100 a month is considered employed. While this was happening our government sends billions of dollars to foreign countries like Mexico to save the peso and the Mexican economy. This is the end result of moving more than 4,000 U.S. factories to Mexico. The first stimulus package when to Mexico.

Both parties participated in the destruction of local value added ceonomies. Every time a factory is moved it leaves a burn out community behind. Production is mobile, ready to move again and again for the sake of cheaper labor and big money interests. Even the factories that were moved to other lands are on the move again leaving more suffering behind than the people were experiencing before the factories came.
Free trade has only made matters worse
(from the Plain Dealer letters to the editor five years ago -fortelling the economic crisis was on its way.)

There is an untold story behind the illegal immigration story. The first question to ask is , why did these immigrants come to the United States? They came to seek jobs. Then what happen to the free trade that was supposed to provide the jobs in Mexico?

The massive migration of workers demonstrates that free trade has failed. The United States has moved more than 4,000 factories to Mexico to save the Mexican economy since 1956, including more than 2,000 that were moved since the NAFTA trade agreement was passed in 1993. ( Both parties locked hands in the passing of both NAFTA and GATT. Even people like Rush Limbaugh locked hands with President Bill Clinton and a Democrat controlled congress in the passing of these trade agreements. See

Rush Limbaugh could have saved the world....

http://www.tapsearch.com/ray-tapajna-rational-economics/id30.html but chose to betray the American Dream joining hands with President Bill Clinton in the passing of NAFTA and GATT trade agreements that cost millions their jobs and businesses. Now Limbaugh embraces Trump to stop the economic nightmare. Sadly Rush Limbaugh was a major player when free trade economics betrayed workers and the American Dream.

.....Obviously, the exporting of our factories to Mexico ( and other lands ) did not work, and after getting NAFTA passed, President Bill Clinton had to rush billions of dollars to Mexico to save the peso. ( The first part of our bail outs went to Mexico back in 1994 and should have warned the world about the things that were to come.)
In the end, an impoverished, destitute working class was created in Mexico, and a working-poor class was created in the United States. NAFTA proved to be a Trojan horse as Illegal immigration speeds up the race to the bottom for workers, and workers' dignity is crushed in both countries - ( with drugs now being the major commodity being traded ), - while globalists free traders call for the same.
Franklin Roosevelt said economic diseases are highly communicable. Today, they are an epidemic in more ways than one. .....( As our economies based on making money on money instead of making things are burning out. ) Donald Trump says our economy is running on just fumes.

Color all red blue states purple 1st - there are really no red or blue states - just purple ones.
