Politicians sold the trade agreements as a way for American businesses to make more money selling internationally, but they are competing with countries with much lower cost of living and much less stringent environmental standards. When politicians started passing laws that forced businesses to fund their agendas (like health care), the related overhead increase kicked off the migration of American manufacturing jobs to other countries. Within a decade, most of the manufacturing jobs left the USA. Politicians didn't think about 'the little people' and assumed they could just get training and other jobs; only some of them could. The current regime is really pushing green energy. I'm a fan of green energy, but it's just not ready to replace everything that already works. It costs more and doesn't work as well. Only upper-middle-class and above living in urban areas can afford green energy solutions; politicians are blind to that and so are a lot of proponents. </div><div><br clear="none">When our politicians created free trade agreements (that weren't fair to American businesses) almost all remaining manufacturing left the US along with the related jobs. Every time politicians meddle with businesses causing their overhead to increase, they cause a shift that hurts employees and consumers the most. We got cheap, crappy, Chinese goods that just don't last (made by people they have to put up nets to prevent them from committing suicide) and the 'throw it away' society that came with it. It hit a lot of American industries and I'm not sure we can get them back now. With costs going up, decent jobs requiring more skill and education, far fewer places to work for low-skilled workers,and even the so-called help always has rules that keep the people we are 'helping' poor (make more than X and you get nothing). it's not surprising a lot of poor people become homeless, resort to crime, and take drugs.
