Oh no! Words like this may upset socialists on this board. The next thing you are going to say that capitalism works. Then we both are going to be in trouble.

Im big on capitalism myself, except Im having a hard time understanding it these days.

Help me out if you can. Im going to post these questions on these types of threads and see if someone can get me some answers.

Lets consider the following countries....

US
China
India
Israel
Ireland
Poland

Now, using the Smith / Ricardo paradigms of Free Trade and Comparative Advantage, in what areas of trade do each of those countries have a Comparative Advantage relative to the others, as of today.

Do you see that changing in five years?

What does the selling out of America to the highest bidder have to do with Capitalism.

In the long run this immigration bill is not good for America.

If we don't have enough skilled technical employees then I say that is the fault of the colleges and universities.

Hell anyone can go to college now without any restrictions.

Even some of our so-called prestigious universities have lowered their entrance qualifications.


Yale let in a fifth grade educated Taliban.

Convert some of the useless liberal arts schools to science and math and we will not need to be sold down the drain by a bunch of greedy liberal businessmen.
