No, I'm not suggesting trade deals provide no benefits to US citizens. However, the benefits go to people in their capacity as consumers and somewhat as investors. Many people are hurt far worse in their capacity as workers than they are helped in their capacity as a consumer or investor, and they are not fully and fairly compensated. They are not retrained for work providing comparable wages, which often is impossible, and they are not compensated for being forced into jobs that pay lower wages.
