Bush, Dick Cheney, John McCain, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid have all fully supported our trade relationship with China.  In this day and age, virtually anyone who even dares to question how fair our “free trade” is with China is immediately labeled as a “protectionist” … [visit site to read more]

Commentary: Crude oil is currently down after falling on Friday despite a better-than-expected U.S. nonfarm payrolls report and rallying equity markets.
