The Real Cost of the Peru Free Trade Agreement
http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/112307F.shtml
David Bacon writes for Truthout that "In the 2006 elections, aspiring Democrats attacked the Bush administration's free trade policies, and more than 20 new members of Congress were elected, giving the Democratic Party its new majority in the House of Representatives.
Yet two weeks ago, Democratic Party leaders urged those same members of Congress to vote for a new free trade agreement with Peru. Most rebelled, but enough Democrats voted for the Bush administration proposal, along with every Republican, to push it through the House. The Senate is expected to take up the agreement any day now."
