Controversy over Trade Deals

One option that might make some sense comes to our attention from the American Agriculture Movement which is calling for a "time out" in trade deals.

Larry Matlack, President of AAM, has declared, “Many farmers were strong advocates of previous trade agreements such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and acceptance of China into the World Trade agreement (WTO). We were led to believe such actions would advance U.S. agriculture only to find out later that the agreements were oversold and underperforming. Congress should hold off ratification of any more trade agreements until previous agreements can be reviewed and improved to serve everyone.”
