Hello All. Looks like there are big plans in the works for the U.S. economy as soon as fair trade and tariffs are RE-instituted here in the U.S. to level the playing field. and that means EXPORTS and IMPORTS. It seems now for the possibility that bright times are starting to starting to clear and the dark clouds that have hovered over America's Manufacturing and heavy industries are starting to break and a little SUNLIGHT starting to show. We need FAIR MARKET VALUES here in the U.S. We no longer worry about the Mexican coffee bean farmer or the guy in Columbia. they've had their way with us for 30 years. Since 1978. Time for America to go to work.

I think that the same trade regulations other countries have on AMERICAN MADE PRODUCTS should be used on their imported products. These trade agreements are only for the people who have invested overseas. It has killed our industries for the most part.
