FTAA is about world government
President Bush is pushing to pass the Free Trade Area of the Americas agreement. Bush insists that the North American Free Trade Agreement was a grand success and should be expanded to include nearly all the nations of the Western Hemisphere. The FTAA could be voted on by Congress in April.
The FTAA is not about free trade, in spite of its deceptive name. It is really about a power grab for internationalists. It will erode our sovereignty and independence even further than NAFTA has. It will be European Union 2. If Congress passes the FTAA, they will have given governmental authority to unelected, independent tribunals of foreigners, who will tell us what to do without any representation or control by U.S. citizens. They will issue orders to overrule our court judgments and laws of our nation. The FTAA is really about setting up a one-world government piece by piece.
If the FTAA is passed, we will lose our borders and about 500 million people living south of the U.S. will find it a lot easier to take up residence in the U.S. and take American jobs or even get on welfare. Moreover, more jobs will be lost overseas.
I am a Republican, but Bush is wrong here. Americans should write and call their congressmen and urge him to reject the FTAA to keep the U.S. independent, free and sovereign.
