The Financial Times reported yesterday (June 29th, page 9) that France enjoyed greater FDI than the US during the last year ($47B versus $40B). Whatever's going on, it ain't because of free trade, no matter how desperately you wish it to be true.

To: 1rudeboy
What a pleasure to see you, 1rudeboy! I've been waiting for you to show up.

I noticed that you made a number of contributions to a thread here in which a lawyer used a rather old law to force his neighbors to pay part of the cost of fencing the lawyer's property.

You were quite vigorous in your defense.

As for me, I'm in favor of nice new laws that implement good, strong tariffs to protect American jobs and industry.

And since you clearly favor letting neighbors pay for a fence, you must surely favor letting tariffs pay for the protection of American jobs and manufacturing infrastructure!

And, responding to your post, the problem most certainly IS free trade. Investors can see that the U.S. is bankrupt, and has divested herself of the ability to earn income. We've given it away to China. So, naturally, those investors don't want to risk their money here.

The free traitors have cut America's throat. We're only beginning to see the consequences.

And thanks again for all your contributions to that property thread - you may be assured that I will remind you of your position in making others pay for the lawyer's fence.
