American middle class is shrinking rapidly and consumer spending is down due to the decrease in disposable income.

American corporations have no loyalty to any particular nation. Capitalism is good, globalism is a perverted form of capitalism in which American corporations will sell their own nation down the river for a buck.

There will be those who chime in and get all snarky, calling folks like me isolationist and so forth, but proofs in the pudding.

The United States was once the world's sole economic powerhouse. This is no longer the case. Many industries left long ago and Lord forbid we ever find ourselves in another World War. America manufacturing would be in serious trouble as many skill sets would have to be trained and proficiency would likely take many years.

American corps are using the excuse that there isn't enough skilled labor in America so we must have H1B visas to make up for the shortfall. This simply isn't true.

Speak to an Indian or Chinese engineer working in the U.S.. Won't take long to extract the real truths that surround their employment here in the U.S..

Capitalism is good. Free markets and free expression of ideas has proven to create industrial engines and second to none productivity. No dispute.

American corporations are complicit and should be ashamed allowing China to exploit their population in such a way. They've turned a blind eye to air/water pollution, child labor, poor factory work conditions...all for a $$buck$$.

American corporations have moved offshore in an effort to skirt worker safety, compensation and environmental safeguards not to mention the danger to the national security of the United States by allowing a communist country which is technically our enemy to gain militarily on us. Don't believe these things? Check out the resources below.

“the danger to the national security of the United States by allowing a communist country which is technically our enemy to gain militarily on us”

Hard to refute, except that we are now under a moslem-marxist administration.
