It's funny that the alt-left is mad that jobs aren't going to Mexico.
Given how free trade is an effective distributor of wealth between rich and poor countries, I've never understood socialists who oppose free trade. They're an enigma. And I've especially not understood capitalists who oppose free trade. They're an enigma too. If you like free markets, you should like free trade. If you like wealth redistribution between states, you should like free trade. One of the few things the right and the left aught to agree on, at least if they're not nationalists anyway.

It isn't about economics with Trumpites.....well maybe it is and they just don't want to admit they embrace left-wing economic policy

Are those Pennsyltucky coal fields back in operation, yet?

Was it the Chinese or the Mexicans that closed the pits?
