The US is one of the few, if not the only country, to really have "free trade". Our goods manufactured in this country almost always have some type of tax added to them if they are sent to another country by that country.
The labor cost advantage China and India have over the US won't last long-look at Japan and Taiwan. Their cost of labor, like the European countries, is equal to or higher than the US.
The issue is the import and export of goods on a fair basis. I don't claim to be an economist but I worked for a large company for enough years to understand the politics and Things That Aren't Discussed when you talk about importing and exporting goods.
