In my comment, I noted that Kennedy SAID it. I didn’t write that he thought it up.

Clifford Winston of the Brookings Institution found that the import limits have actually cost jobs in the U.S. auto industry by making it possible for the sheltered American automakers to raise prices and limit production. In 1984, Winston writes in Blind Intersection? Policy and the Automobile Industry, 32,000 jobs were lost, U.S. production fell by 300,000 units

Higher prices, fewer jobs, lower production. Still trying to figure out why you think this is a victory.

[Robert DeLong]

There you go, thanks I was unaware of how much they made. You need to inform impimp.

[Robert DeLong]

But that wasn’t your argument at all, it was all about lower prices.

I work on an Army system. Most of our computer components are made in China, some are from Thailand, Singapore or Korea but a lot of them say made in China on them. I am assuming that we would use made in the USA stuff if we could.

[combat_boots]

I agree.

This is EVERYWHERE and not confined to one industry.

The US makes very little now.

Go read a couple of authoritative books on the WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION and get back with us.

I just wanted to clarify it a bit.

What I posted did not give the ultimate source; either.

Show everyone how you generally conduct business, you tosser.

Your wish is my command; Tossee.

On the other hand, indeed, I am quite witty and erudite, so why not let people see years of my posts.

And in doing so; they can learn of your humble spirit.

[Elsie]

P.S.: It is now time for you to call out all your buzzards.

They've had their fill; but perhaps a malnourished raccoon will amble by to nibble yer innards.

Would that give you pleasure?

[Elsie]

Yes, technology replaces some jobs but there is so much more to the story.

Indeed there is.

Silicon foundries really knocked the socks off of breadboarding electronic circuits!

Here is Virginia there is still a big need for farriers, and the guys that arte really good at it are beginning to retire, either due to age or infirmity.

Are you serious? Posting a 1984 article by a globalist (Brookings Inst.) as evidence of your wacky support for exporting U.S. jobs? Sheesh. The cows are already out of the barn on this one.

Its time to end the TRADE SURRENDER.

[Toddsterpatriot]

Ummmm.....central_va posted the article to show how well restricting trade works. Did you read the portion I excerpted?
