No doubt next they will ship our teaching jobs overseas.
You are not in America because if you were you would know how frustrating it is for us to have to deal with someone in Timbuktu just to make an appointment with someone here in America.
Let poor people in foreign countries do work for their neighbors in their own economy. They are not being paid well. If they were being paid decently, our corporations would not transfer the jobs to their economies.
You have no idea how Americans have lost out and how discouraged they are because of these trade deals. We are turning into the poor in foreign countries. Surely other countries have television, and the people in other countries can answer the phones of customers in their own countries and repair their own computers, etc. We want jobs that service Americans to be done in America. We want to buy or at least be able to buy lots of products made in the US. We can't because of these trade deals. No more trade deals. We have had enough of this.
