The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

After NAFTA, that became the norm.  We gave away US industries to other countries in the name of "Free trade" -- which screwed US companies, workers and investors. 

How many products have been recalled because China doesn't have the same consumer protection system as we do?  I don't agree with all of our rules, but the big ones, like not using cancer-causing dyes on kids' clothes and toys, seem like good things.
