Do you want to see where this country is headed? If so, don't focus on the few areas that are still very prosperous. New York City has Wall Street, Washington D.C. has the federal government and Silicon Valley has Google and Facebook. Those are the exceptions. The reality is that most of the country has been experiencing a slow decline for a very long time and once thriving cities such as Gary, Indiana and Flint, Michigan have become absolute hellholes. They are examples of what the rest of America will look like soon. 60 years ago, most Americans were decent, hard working people and there were always good jobs available for anyone that was willing to roll up his or her sleeves and put in an honest day of work. But now all of that has changed. Over the past decade, tens of thousands of manufacturing facilities have shut down and millions of jobs have left the country. Cities such as Cleveland, Baltimore and Detroit were once shining examples of everything that was right about America, but now they stand out like festering sores.

What you say in the following is true and worth repeating:

central_va:
“Erect tariffs to stop the bleeding NOW. Every manufacturing plant in the USA is part of our National Defense infrastructure. Every manufacturing facility that closes is a national tragedy. Killing a patient cures the cancer. That is what Free Trade is doing to the USA”

Yes, the Yankees have been trying to “educate” the South since Appomatox and they’ve failed. We keep clinging to God, guns and religion; they want us to worship the government. Ain’t gonna happen.

They still believe that Appomatox was a surrender. IT WAS NOT!! Appomatox was only a time out.

Yankee born, Southern bred, and a rebel by the Grace of God.
