Thompson For Fair Trade

In an ever growing, competitive world market our manufacturers are still the best. We produce the best goods, we have the best work ethic and we are the envy of most of the world. Unfortunately, our employers are consistently placed at a competitive disadvantage by a market that is relatively free but is not fair. We must work to make free trade and fair trade synonymous and ubiquitous. When the Steelers go out on any Sunday to play, it does not matter where the game is, they know the rules and everyone abides by them (at least to a certain extent.) In world trade Americans are too often placed at a competitive disadvantage by a national government that is not always the most business friendly. If we are to keep employers going, it is imperative that we improve our business environment.
