Arkansas' two senators joined with the majority of Republicans to vote "yes" to CAFTA, the so-called "Free Trade of the Americas".
Unions and some U.S. Industries were oppossed to the treaty. Most big business interests were in favor of it.
A "yes" vote was a vote to pass the legislation and a "no" vote was a vote to defeat it.
Voting "yes" were 10 Democrats, 43 Republicans and one independent. In other words, only eight other Senate democrats joined our two in voting for the agreement.
Voting "no" were 33 Democrats and 12 Republicans.
Is CAFTA a good idea? Why did Pryor and Lincoln mostly vote with Republicans on this issue?
NAFTA+CAFTA=SHAFTA
Kudos to our two lefty Senators for supporting CAFTA. You folks who think we can shut out the world with tariffs and subsidies live in a century that's past. Free trade is our only hope for the future. Get over it.
You assume that CAFTA and NAFTA represent free trade just because its supporters call it that.
CAFTA and NAFTA represent managed trade, with each document running thousands of pages. Unelected government boards pick winners and losers, not the free market.
Not that I am a big subsidy fan, and I think tariffs should only be used on countries that don't engage in massive cost shifting (that would not represent true free market decisions anyway).
