Oh, I see,,we can't rebuild it

Not without the national will to do so.

As a nation we are preoccupied with consuming and instant gratification rather than producing and we will mortgage whatever productive assets we have to keep consuming. Look how consumers are given tax breaks (IE mortgage deductions) producers are taxed. Manufacturing requires much patient capital to build up plant and equipment. I don't see that changing either in a next quarter results based management system.

If they have no will to do so, what do they deserve?

And they are calling me an America hater..lol

No government interference should be allowed or tolerated.

BTW, the tax advantages are not for the consumers, they are a way for government thugs to give gifts to the people who sell the subsidized goods or services.

Particularly when it's not profitable to do so.

What do you suggest? Some here probably want a planned economy with a government enforced management system. I don't see you being one of them.
