Effects of the Free Trade

In the long run, free trade negatively effects the US economy.  Because of the fact that big corporations are able to go over seas and charge the minimal price for their labor, they fully take advantage of that.  In a business sense it is kind of smart for an increase in personal profit, but it does not help our economy.  Instead of outsourcing with other countries the US could make their own accessories here and eventually help the economy.  For example, it could help with the unemployment rates here in America especially during our recession.  Even though it would mean that these big corporations would not profit as much, it would go more for the greater cause of not just them but the economy.  It would also help eventually because all the money that we spend on other countries to produce our products, if we manufactured our own products the money would eventually be, in a way, recycled to us because everyone pays taxes.  I think that we as the people should try harder to find more US made products.  Even if it is a lot more expensive, you are not only helping the economy, your purchase would probably last twice as long as another countries product.  Think about it.......
