Greenspan slammed on US free trade policies
Senator Donald Riegle spares no punches complaining to Alan Greenspan about persistent trade deficts with Japan. This took place back in 1992 ...and trade deficits with Japan have worsened since that time.
Since this video aired 15 years ago, the annual trade deficit with Japan has almost doubled to over $7 billion/month ($88 billion for all of 2006).
Since this video aired 15 years ago, the total annual trade deficit (for all nations the U.S. trades with) is almost 12 times worse (from $70 billion for all of 1993 to $817 billion for all of 2006).
According to the BBC, the U.S. borrowed $2 billion daily in 2006 to finance its trade deficit. This is lunacy and there is no justification for it and it must stop (or it will stop when foreign governments and banks stop financing our trade...

U.S. Trade Policy and Job-Destroying Treaties, WTO & NAFTA
Policy analyst Jock Nash describes the effects of job-destroying treaties including the World Trade Organization (WTO), NAFTA and CAFTA; which have eliminated millions of American jobs, and transferred American wealth overseas. What happened to businesses in America being patriotic? Hiring Americans? Making safe products in America? "American" corporations now move manufacturing to China to escape pollution and safety laws and to exploit near-slave and sweatshop labor--that's not patriotic and that's not safe for consumers or good for the environment. Chinese toy workers make an average of 36 cents per hour in brutal conditions; no American worker's job is safe when competing with slave wages. Big corporations have proved that every job that can't be outsourced to China will be...

Sex trade worsens in U.S. camptowns
To "Uri," struggling to find a job in her country, a newspaper advertisement that promised her a successful career as a singer in Korea and lucrative income seemed an opportunity that would not knock twice.
The 24-year-old Filipina, who only identified herself with her alias, immediately visited an employment agency in Manila in late 2006. There she took a singing test, which was filmed and sent to a Korean agency and the Korean immigration office. Less than two months later, she flew to Korea with an E-6 visa, issued to foreign performing artists.
When the Korean agency took Uri to a club near a U.S. military base in Pyeongtaek, she realized she'd been cheated. Instead of a microphone, there was a pole around which she was supposed to drape herself.

9-11 World Trade Center Memorial - Jeff Buckley/Hallelujah
Summer of 1999, my family and I had the opportunity to vacation in New York City. We had a lovely time, saw a few Broadway shows, The Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, The Empire State Building, Central Park and we visited The World Trade Center. At the World Trade Center, there is what is called the "Top of The World" indoor and outdoor observation deck. When arriving at the World Trade Center we had a souvenir photo taken of us in the lobby area then up the elevators to the indoor observation deck and then it ends with a wonderful rooftop stroll with a suburb view..
It is unfortunate for those who have never had the opportunity to see or visit the WTC. They were a couple of enormous and majestic buildings located in lower Manhattan. Now, their absence from the cityscape of...

Beijing criticises US on human rights record - 21 Oct 08
One of the big foreign policy challenges facing the next US president is how to handle China.
Trade has grown exponentially between the two nations but bilateral ties remain strained.
The US accuses Beijing of locking up political dissidents and brutally suppressing a separatist movement by Uighur Muslims.
But China has published its own reports on human rights abuses in the US, saying Washington has been incapable of lifting many African-Americans out of poverty.
In our second of a series of reports examing this fractious relationship, Al Jazeera's Tony Cheng has more.

Davos Annual Meeting 2007 - Frozen Trade Talks
http://www.weforum.org 27.01.2007
Frozen Trade Talks and the Need for Progress
Doha's apparent failure has given rise to a debate on the role of multilateral, regional and bilateral factors in shaping the international trade agenda. Meanwhile, it remains unclear if, and how, businesses have been affected.
1) How are regional and bilateral factors influencing the future of international trade?
2) What is at stake in maintaining a healthy global trade regime?
3) Should the manner in which multilateral trade agreements are negotiated be overhauled?
