I am not getting your post.

I am saying exactly yes, corporations should make stuff in America, out of patriotism.

What makes the USA special? Are you serious?

What makes the USA special?

What exactly is your point?

Do you not believe the USA is special? I believe we are the best nation in history.

Thanks.

Here is what I am trying to say:

We are not a nation. We are not a people. Examples of nations: Japan is a nation. Israel is a nation. Germany is a nation. What is the USA?

The USA is a set of values and ideals enshrined in the the Deceleration of Independence and the Constitution. The idea that all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights. In other words all rights of man come from God, not from government.

The only thing that makes us a “nation” are those ideas or ideals. Without those ideas what is these United States? A spot on the map? We are not a people. We have no natural affinity for each other. We are nothing.

We have abandoned our founding ideas so nothing is left. So with that in mind, why should any corporation maintain operations here in this country? Why? Cultural affinity? Religious affinity? Patriotism? Affinity to what? The Constitution that we ignore?

We have no identity. What is the basis of loyalty except money? Money that can be made more efficiently elsewhere.
