The direct correlation between "free trade treaties" and corporate "tax evasion".
It is our Congress and Presidents that have stamped their imprimatur on "free trade treaties" for the last 20 years.
In so doing, they have given corporations and multinationals an open avenue to hide all their profits in tax havens overseas.
The solution to this problem is not to pass more "free trade" agreements, but to place a tariff on all products brought back to this country for sale. Tax evasion cannot be allowed to continue.
