Cringer: if you really wanted to “bring back American jobs” - this is the type issue you would jump all over.

No thanks.

You can absolutely carry on about this however, because I completely agree with you.

"If you think you may have been a victim of microaggression..."

Call Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe!

It isn't just lawsuits, it is that so many people are so busy inventing new BS to sue over.

Pistols at 20 paces (at dawn) was more civilized.

Oh, he’s on another thread, telling us he doesn’t have time for the unimportant issue of abortion...

I think we’re similar, in a wy then.

Because you say you don’t have time for the unimportant issue of American jobs.

How to run a successful business: buy low, sell high, and don’t get sued in between.

Tort reform in the US is way overdue ... we’ve known this for at least three decades. For instance, in Britain if you initiate a law suit and lose, you pay all expenses ... meaning, whatever it cost the party being sued in lawyer fees to defend against the law suit ... it’s your dime if you are the initiator. An obvious conclusion ... it cuts out a lot of frivolous law suits.

hah, yeah, but at least he did acknowledge that some of our own liberalism, and not just China, is the problem......that is first sign of progress I’ve ever seen from him.

We, through our national manufacturing mess, have changed America into a land buying ever-more stuff made in China.

China now makes more than America.

China sold 342 billion dollars more to America last year, than America sold to China. China now has the second-largest defense budget on the entire planet. And that is growing rapidly.

Meanwhile our trade deficit is growing ever quicker. We are now more than 18 TRILLION DOLLARS in debt. And that grows every single day.

We are handing the future to a massive communist nation.

Donald Trump is saying we need to bring back businesses to America.

I completely agree with him.

In creating the “public school” system, the old industrial “robber barons” yanked childhood itself up from its natural surroundings and tossed it into a utopian project, a conveniently engineered child-garden for limitless moneymaking because they were sure nothing else mattered. Our civilization died a long time ago.

But...

Contrary to common sense, job opportunities for law school graduates, starting salaries, and median salaries, have been falling, or stagnant, for at least 10 years.

“Tort reform in the US is way overdue”

As long as the trial lawyers’ lobby money doesn’t run out, it ain’t happening.

of course you do.....and you’re both wrong - because we’ve established you are an economic illiterate.

This China obsession. Any notion that Trump the magnificent is gonna swoop in and change this because he’s gonna personally sit down and hash out a deal with the Chinese Premier on trade and currency just like he hashed out a rental agreement is so childish, so shallow, so low IQ, - and is just kindergarten fantasy based on some kind of man crush.
