Deals like CAFTA open up new markets for American (let's say manufacturers) providing new jobs. Plus, it provides opportunities for the poor to access our (agricultural) markets to sell goods at a lower price, allowing consumers to pay less, thus saving Americans money. If you allow the free market to operate, less people lose. The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. ~Edmund Burke |
