I'm sure most have heard about this: news.yahoo.com/s/afp/uspoliticstradedispute;_ylt=AvFS6x0_nNUAItZSxLt.sNvZn414Isn't this exactly the thing you DON'T want to do in a struggling world economy? Clearly the American government should take action for their economic woes, but are they really thinking about how this could possibly shoot themselves in their own foot. I could see much retaliation. Put up a barrier, then someone else may do the same. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come. Since Obama said some unpopular things about NAFTA during his campaign.

I'm not much of a fan of free trade, but whatever.

Protectionist is stupid, and it doesn't work, but that doesn't stop liberals from trying.
