I don't understand the grasping for straws on the protectionist side.

Incomes are dropping; jobs are being lost forever. No they're not. Well, car loan terms are increasing, same thing.

LOL. Sounds like Havoc logic.

Okay --- we now have cars with cupholders---- but the 70's cars usually came with those --- and the visor mirrors too --- and the parking brakes. What was the level of government spending compared with now --- it's not just huge trade deficits. How many people have become very reliant on the government --- Medicaid, Medicare, TANF, EITC, food stamps, WIC, SSDI, HUD housing, CHIPS, Headstart, NAFTA-TAA, and all the rest? How does this compare with the 60s? How do we ever wean the dependent off the government if there can be no jobs for them? Why do other countries like China and India and Mexico consider jobs important but we don't?
