I am for freedom of movement in all its forms, but (at risk of cliché) trade cannot be free if workers are unfree.

Free trade.  I find it kind of odd that protectionism is even considered in the global market we have now.  Free trade ultimately benefits the consumer.  Plus, The local "Made in America" store wouldn't have nearly the sales it has under a "We lost our job to Mexicans/Chinese" society Tongue

It benefits the consumer, but the citizen does not only exist as a consumer.
