On some level, this topic may actually be a great forum about international trade. Probably in off-topic.

That said, as long as this remains here on the main board....

Free trade is great for emerging nations, and those countries that host huge populations who are ill-educated.

Problem with free trade in the US in 2011, is that the world is rife with poor and desperate folks, as opposed to a a population that we find in the US, that has a history of being number one. You cannot maintain number one, if you are not willing to accept third world wages and living conditions.

it's a great fishing pier. in the early winter months the Mexican Brown Trout spawn and throughout the winter until the end of February the hatchlings find their way to the ocean, especially after a rain event....

Actually, according to the data, "free trade" (it really isn't), has devastated developing nations. An example that comes to mind is Mexican farmers having to compete against the government-subsidized American agribusiness model.

http://thehill.com/homenews/house/193581-secret-farm-bill-pr...

You are on the money when it comes to the US having to accept Third World wages in order to compete these days. But that was the plan all along.

There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

South Bay Ocean Outfall

That 'pier' was part of the construction of the SBOO.

During the construction I was seated on a flight out of Lindbergh next to the guy who "drove" the boring machine that was digging the tunnel. He told me that they worked 14 hours a day for ten days straight then got four days off and he was flying to Vegas to meet his wife for R&R. He also told me that the multimillion(s) dollar boring machine would be left at the site. They would finish the tunnel then back the machine up a few hundred feet and then bore out an angle and leave it to Neptune.
