The future is in innovation.

Could you be a bit more specific?

Jobs are not being lost to obsolescence. They are merely being transfered. We need less regulation and taxation, while doing more than merely "pressing" India and any other country who impose trade imbalances through their own regulation. The idea that we should build up those economies until they get to a point to equal ours to even out trade will do nothing but bleed the country dry. In building their economy up, we are losing some of ours. This sort of thinking usually has conservatives screaming when demonstrated as redistribution of wealth in this country; i.e. welfare, etc.

"Free" traders are too busy calling us isolationists and worse to understand that's how many of us see their "free" trade.

If it weren't for googling I guess I'd have to admit all their talk of emerging capitalists and markets for U.S. goods were true. I'm still open to their googling results to prove what they say but. . . .
