Obama continues to propose to boost exports with antidemocratic "free trade" treaties. The existing ones have not had that effect, but the US Trade Representative is giving Congress [ fudged statistics ](
http://www.commondreams.org/newswire/2014/09/17/presidents-export-council-meets-no-chance-meet-obamas-export-doubling-goal ) to pretend that they did. Even if they did boost exports, it would not be particularly good, because that principally means more profit for US businesses. Nowadays that growth does little good for US workers, due to the antidemocratic effects of these same treaties. So there is no reason for Americans to make increased exports a goal at all.
