Trade. Left-wingers blame the job losses in manufacturing to free trade deals, a view I regard wrong. Increased automation is to blame. And it's a good thing... These people shouldn't be forced to stay in increasingly outmoded lines of work... They should be helped to adjust to the new, emerging innovation economy. People will lose jobs whether we sign stuff like the TPP or not.
Blaming job losses in manufacturing on something mostly unrelated just smacks of global warming denialism... And it is only a little bit more true. And unfortunately reciting this nontruth is something the left, in aggregate, believes in. Sad!
(trade does kill some jobs, but not nearly as much as most think)
