To promote competition, and allow brooding grounds for innovation. It also allows for cheaper products and goods. The effect is that it hurts manufacturing jobs. However the type of jobs is shifted to service economy based. The biggest negative of free trade is we start to lose manufacturing skills amongst the population. It also hurts communities that were dependent upon it. I'm inclined to support some tariffs.
