Not all jobs can stay here since there is no way to get rid of all the regulations. Sure wish we could. Plus it depends on the foreign markets they serve. Heinz, for example, has some plants overseas because it is less expensive to ship from the Far East (Indonesia, I think) to that market than here. There are alot of jobs that could be here, like customer service call center representatives.

Perhaps, those that believes the US is a parasite, should look up the definition and consider it. Only those that do not believe in American exceptionalism could make the comparison. Don’t fall for Putin’s trick. If you still think the US is a parasite, then I would ask you to relocate.

I could get banned for telling you what to do with your invitation for me to move.

The United States is staying afloat off the act of borrowing from other countries.

If we were to have our debts called tomorrow we would declare bankruptcy.

Funny thing is we are borrowing back our own money that we send to China to buy products that are built by companies and industry we sent there from here.

Even funnier is Obama appointed Imelt the head of GE to be the jobs Czar and he sent a good portion of those jobs there.Now even Helen Keller should be able to see that Obama isn’t trying to help our country, but the Congress of the United States just voted to let him borrow more. IF he can find someone stupid enough to buy our debt. Much of it is being bought by the federal Reserve with money that isn’t worth the paper it is printed on.

But you dont think this country is turning into a parasite.

When you must be the grasshopper that relies on the ant to keep you alive you are a parasite.

Funny that you’d think of being nasty. I was civil, yet you had to contain yourself in the face of honest disagreement. Especially since we agree that Obama isn’t good for this country.

Did you ever look up the definition of parasite? This from Random House College Dictionary: “2. a person who receives support, advantages, or the like, from another or others wtihout giving any useful or proper return.” Do you believe that the US gives nothing useful or proper? Still believe Putin is right?

You tell me and others who think we are becoming parasites to get out of the country and you don’t think that is nasty?

That’s civil?

When people tell me to leave the country if I don’t agree with them I get personally angry, I thought I did pretty well in a civil way after being told to leave the country if I agree that Putin was right in calling us parasites.

I certainly know what a parasite is, A parasite is a suckerfish that attach’s itself to a host shark, just like we have attached ourselves to Chinese loans, and The Democrats have attached thenselves to a Usurping Kenyan Muslim ,fake President who goes on $50,000 dollar a week vacations while his aunt lives off our public assistance.

Parasite =Aunt Zuni.

No, I don’t think that I was nasty. Obviously. Nor were you because you were afraid of being banned, AND because you couldn’t have a calm disagreement.

There is alot that we agree on, but when someone believes that the country I love (and I think you do to...hopefully) is as bad as a parasite, then I invite them to relocate. Why would someone stay in a country that they believe is a parasite? I provided the definition, and according to it, the US is not a parasite. It is interesting that you hate what the Democrats and Obama are doing but believe a Communist.

The loan situation isn’t as easy as it seems. Apparently, we have alot of revenue, but the loans are on part of the debt.

Are you Zuni, or just using the name?

Is Zuni a shortened version of a name, or are you a member of the Zuni nation, , or just using the name?

Obama has an Aunt named Zuni.

http://forums.hsn.com/hsn_postst7094_Where-is-Obamas-Aunt-Zuni—Still-Living-in-the-Boston-slums.aspx

She was facing deportation, but Obama took care of that. She is currently living off the good welfare of the people of Boston Massachusetts.

Do a little searching on her, you might find it amusing.
