Can’t wait for a shooting war with China and/or Russia so Free Traders can be hunt down and tarred and feathered.

Nope. I’m simply pointing out reality. America is a terrible place to do business, especially something with a serious footprint like a factory.

Here’s a thought experiment: let’s say you wanted to build a factory. And you have 2 choices of where to build it. In one place you will spend a minimum of 5 years wrangling through the courts with environmental impact studies, and spotted owl hunts, and zoning issues and every other nuisance possible before you can even break ground at a cost of millions. In another place for a “fee” of about 1/10 that you can break ground in 6 months, no lawsuits, no studies, no BS, your factory will be up and running for 4 years before place 1 will even let start.

Given those two options where do you build your factory?

The problem isn’t who loves or hates America. The problem is who America loves and hates. And modern America hates business of any and all kinds. Our government and people specifically hamper industry, we crush expansion, we reroute water, we desperately look for any lizard that might be affected and cancel the project. Pretty much the only part of your post that’s accurate is labeling it disgusting. It is disgusting how much effort we as a country put into killing businesses and then bitching they don’t hire enough people.

It is my contention you could take away ALL regulations, taxes and unions and the anti American Free Traitors would still move their factories over seas.

That’s a cute contention, out here in reality businesses make business decisions, they put factories where it makes economic sense. Right now it usually does not make sense to build anything in America.

As long as you need emotionality and name calling you’ll be behind the curve on the issue. It’s about profit and logic. Anybody that can’t handle that is just squawking and not helping.

I guess the founding fathers were emotional protectionists too. By the way do you have a hole or cave to hide in to avoid being hung from a lamp post when a shooting war starts; China vs. Japan and the USA?. Free traitors aren’t goiog to do so well, you’d better plan ahead.

No. They were smart enough to understand the economics. You know countries with heavy trade with each other have never entered a way. So if there’s somebody helping that “effort” is the free trade, making sure that if China got into a war with us the first thing they’d do is go bankrupt.

See, this is the problem with the need for insults. You have no facts, you know you have no facts, so you lean on name calling and outright fiction. Try a post without name calling, go ahead, I dare you.

It’s gonna be a long wait. You folks have been predicting a hot war with China for over 20 years, so far we’re right and you’re wrong.

Oh, and you failed the challenge. Incapable of a post without name calling. Well, we’re done. Have fun.
