HD,
Do you propose the Obama repudiate all the trade agreement the U.S. has?

Wait until every other country offers retaliatory measure and see how fast the downturn gains speed and destroys what ever trade we have left.
We are dependent on imports and still think we can dictate to the world that they are required to open their markets but we can close ours. That is arrogant and it is also destructive to our companies that are making money overseas.
I know, I know I am a sell out, nazi, unAmerican but the reality of the situation is that if the rest of the world starts retaliatory trade policies against us because of this legislation we will be in a depression. Go look at the Great Depression and what happened when protectionist policies blocked trade. It deepened, lengthened and broadened the economic destruction that was taking place.
To think we can dictate to the world's trade policies is as much of a fantasy as thinking we can force democracy upon people who have no history of democracy.
