How do affect companies and American workers the trade agreements-

F.T.A?

The companies in the United States have flourished internationally is

economic, but in recent years some countries have put in practice national

trade policies and this affects the Americans, who win are companies and

workers at the expense of them.

the F.T.A helps to create a field level between two or more countries,

workers and businesses to succeed, obtaining agreements where the trade

is more responsible and fair; This reduces trade barriers, cutting tariffs

and establishing a fair set rules, they avoid that countries perform

commercial activities which are unfair and harm to American companies and

their workers, and they take responsibility in their trade activities.

They are lot countries in the world, whose have taken this measure, but

taking the decision there are doubts of how this affects trade and if

expanding it helps or harms American workers and companies; having a

positive impact helps the creation of new jobs.

300 non-us agreements around the world and it many more in negotiation
