WTWizard, Our elected officials in Congress are controlled by the president(Who now happens to be my Cousin) who gets to see ALL the intelligence reports..and releases what he wants to Congress and the Public. Would he release reports or intel that cast any doubt into his proposals to them, and for them to consider and use as ammunition to thwart his plans and proposals?
Do you not think that someone has figured out if they own all your choices for president in advance...They are going to stay in control of you and Congress by controlling the intelligence you recieve?
NAFTA is an excellent example. Yes it was a intitial hundred dollar bill...but it turned into dogpoo at midnight. How?
It opened foriegn markets for our products yes. But it also opened us up to foriegn competition as well. They copy and improve out products, then mass produce them cheaper then we can compete with, by paying their workers slave labors. Now our "customers" have become our competition, and are stealing our customers from us. And the only way we can compete, is to work for slave labors too, and starve to death in our expensive economy.
Was that intel given to us and congress before it was approved and appluaded?
It benefited someone...and it was not us.
