The historical record is: We have a socialist/Marxist in the White House and his cohorts control both legislative branches .... unless you don't think Zero is a Marxist? Yes/No - you have to select one.
And the FR free trade crowd has a problem understanding that there are WINNERS and LOSERS in the free trade arena. The winners are obviously the 3rd World nations that get our manufacturing jobs .... the losers are the folks who lose their jobs here*. YOU cannot deny that.

The standard retort is; well let them build our stuff we're all going to become researchers and rocket scientists and the like (and do Lasik surgery on each other LOL)

I really don't know if it's a 'snob thing' .... like not knowing there are people who simply working at there full mental capacity just showing up and pulling a lever when a light blinks.

While the standard FR response to those folks is tough titties, those people still have a vote. And by voting for Obama -PBOH- they believe they had the best chance to continue eating.

And on a personal note, I apologize for being so bitchy the other day .... I'm always that way prior to final inspections. I really don't wish unemployment on anyone.

*Which is/was why Karl Marx was a free trader. He knew the losers would turn to his beliefs when they lost their source of income.

Let me see if I have this straight: you agree with Marx about free trade, as do others. Those of you that are "down" with the struggle of the working class elected a Marxist to the White House.

And you are blaming me? LOL
