Free Trade in Britain Might Hurt American Workers
Nathaniel McKay's open letter to Workingmen of America cites British wages 40 to 60 percent lower on average, longer hours, poorer housing, and costlier food, arguing free trade harms mechanics and laborers while brewers and distillers profit from grain use in brewing and distilling. He cites official figures and claims Britain’s economy under free trade depresses American workers.
