These anti-middle class deals haven’t helped more than they’ve hurt. American manufacturing jobs are at their lowest point since 1979. 7,231,000 have been lost. In exchange we’ve gotten foreigners sending our products to us, and the jobs we had are replaced by Wal-Mart jobs stocking those foreign items on the shelves. Used to be we had BOTH the manufacturing job AND the Wal-Mart job.

Donald Trump is right when he says we have to bring manufacturing back to the US. If we could keep the unions out of it and lower the corporate tax rate we could be very competitive. 7 million new jobs would go a long way towards getting the country back.
