Why do you think that imports and exports should be the exact same?

I support free trade, but this is ridiculous. The latter belies the former.

I'm not sure this has any real significance to it. We could be running a large trade surplus and still have more empty containers leaving our country than coming in. The monetary value of an item isn't necessarily based on it's volume.

I'd explain it to you, but it's obviously above your head.

LOL! Ok.... I guess you do not believe in Supply Side economics?

I guess you do not believe in Supply Side economics?No I don't.
With our Supply Side being outsourced offshore,
I prefer stronger pro-American policies.

CAN YOU SAY WAL-MART WAL-MART WAL-MART.Americans need to DEMAND AMERICAN products.The problem really starts here dont you think.IF the AMERICAN companies That support AMERICAN companies (WAL-MART DOES NOT!)Were stronger in there own backyard eventually the trend would change.
To: stickandpucknut; Willie Green
We live in a consumer-driven economy. People demand cheap goods. The other day, I made a conscious decision to buy higher quality Portuguese towels that will last me for a few years, rather than some cheap Chinese towels that would last me six months. People will only pay a premium for quality, not because of "national pride."
Those who bemoan the loss of "smokestack America" are similar to those who bemoaned the loss of the "Yeoman farmer" a century ago. Besides, industrial employment is down WORLDWIDE, including in China, due to automation.

LOL! You really do not even know what I am talking about.
If you study the facts and use logic, then you would realize its a good thing. I happen to notice you have a "Go Pat Go". Well did you know Pat is a big Supply Sider? Another name to it is call Reagan Economics..
Never mind though, because you know it all...
LOL!
To: Willie Green
You know you are on the same side as the AFLCIO?
That should give you a RED flag...
To: Sprite518
You really do not even know what I am talking about.Of course I do...
I'm simply waiting to see if you have anything to offer beyond buzzword economics.

Do you let other people do your own thinking, or do you do your own? Why don't you ask your Buddy Pat what he thinks of Reagan economics. Promise you he loves them...

I'm not sure this has any real significance to it. We could be running a large trade surplus and still have more empty containers leaving our country than coming in. The monetary value of an item isn't necessarily based on it's volume. For example, software.

You do understand you are on the same side as John Kerry, AFLCIO, and Howard Dean...
What does that tell you????
To: Sprite518
What does that tell you????It tells me that you're mastery of economics is superficial and miniscule since you have to resort to generic political demonization by association. Such lack of substance is shameful.
