If free trade rules, why the tens of billions to keep commodity products with artificially inflated values afloat in the U.S.?

Pure manipulation of what should be a free market.
you might want to ask some questions of you politicians about this…like why cars coming from korea have a 2.5%tariff…while cars from america have a 25% tariff…and the korean govt says that these american cars are unsafe…thereby implying koreans shouldnt buy the cars..??? this is govt intimidation by korea to keep america out of its markets,,,and our politicians do nothing…except sit and wait for their campaign contributions to flow in from the korean car dealerships in america…call it what you want…i call it the selling out of american jobs, and the selling out of our national security by these same politicians letting gov’t contracts go to overseas manufacturers of vital parts and technology for our military..all under the guise of “free trade”…. the only free trade we have is the countries we are competing with freeling getting to trade with our politicians to ruin american lives….
Corporate welfare. It’s not capitalism, and it’s not a free market. You pay for the subsidies, and then you pay at the grocery store, gas station, etc.
