Free Versus Fair Trade, a Two Hour Special
Local, national, and international guests share the perspective of working people, as three more free trade agreements head to Congress:
- Korea, the biggest volume deal since NAFTA
- Colombia, where more unionists are killed than in the rest of the world combined and whose number of displaced persons is rivaled only by Sudan, and
- Panama, the country with financial regulation so lax an intern could set up a fake corporation in minutes, over the phone.
Hear the voices of need before greed and support Portland’s Community Radio Station, KBOO, during Spring Membership Drive.
Co-hosted by Bill Zimmerman and John Walsh.
