If we need to educate and reeducate our workers, our companies should be doing that and not exporting the jobs instead. The deals should keep workers in mind and not just try to maximize the profits for some company that paid off some scumbag in Washington for some BS rule in a trade deal.
Bannon gets a bit of a bad rap. As far as I can tell, he's a nationalist, but he's not a white nationalist. Most in the media either can't comprehend the extreme difference or purposely try to blur the line between the two.
I also absolutely applauded Brexit.
The less centralized the power, the more free we will all be to move and go to places that match our own values and desires. The more centralized and global we become, the more power will be in the hands a few people that will dictate how we should live, what we should believe etc..
