Trade Agreement

[ccmanuals]

What do you know about the new trade agreement signed with South Korea? Bernie Sanders breaks it down in terms anyone can understand.

For decades the US.. has had an embargo against North Korean goods. Now, firms that are located in South Korea manufacture their goods in NORTH Korea via independent trade agreements between the two countries, where workers are paid .35 cents an hour.

These goods are then shipped to America via the new agreement. This means that the U.S. is in effect buying North Korean made goods.

You're not getting much response on this thread, but I'll say again we have to stop making these exploitative trade agreements. They aren't fair to either the trading partners nor American worker/consumers.

it's a non sequitur. (and blindingly obvious, just don't ignore the US imperialist agendas with other FTAs)

It's why the American government can't stand against the human rights abusers, we are the human right abusers.
