I could say, spoken like a true one-world global knothead, but I won't. You're probably right. To the detriment of America's future.
And you've managed to post zero facts. Bravo!!
If you need more feedback, pick up a book and get informed.
You first!!
As you can see by this chart, we manufacture less and less every year. Only $3 trillion in industrial production this year. More than the GDP of every other nation except for Japan. Yes, we are surely doomed.
But you did, Blanche, but you did.
I think the world should be full of peace and love for mankind, but its not.
What we wish and what we face are two different things.
There is good and bad to everything. Yes, globalization has cost the US some jobs - but at the same time it has created other jobs when it opened global markets to us. We've gotten just as many positives out of it as we have negatives.
Just like the demise of the iceman and the blacksmith. All THEY could see was the end of THEIR world. The refrigerator repairman and the auto mechanic saw a whole new world open up for them. It all depends on where you are looking from.
But my Dad was an iceman. He dropped out of school in 7th grade and bought a house a year later.
Got married, had 6 kids and bought a new (American, dammit) car every year. While Mom stayed home. All on an iceman's salary.
Now nobody can afford homes, cars or kids. I blame Bush. And those NAFTA refrigerators (with built in ice-maker, dammit) coming into the country on that NAFTA highway. Where is Jerome Corsi when we need him?

Did Bush put up steel tarrifs for a year despite the gnashing of teeth from the GATT and our allies?
Did Bush play hardball with the Canadians on soft lumber for the last 5 years? Did Bush play hardball with the canadians on salmon fishing harvests in 2001/2002?
Is Bush pushing for nuclear power plants, more coal plants and drilling in ANWR despite the howls of the global warming cretins and envirowackos?
Do our troops operate anywhere in the world under the UN banner or did Bush sign an executive order prohibiting it?
Is Bush heeding the UN and other world critics about the need to ban the death penalty?
Did Bush close down Guantanamo or any other prison despite the international condemnation?

Has Bush lifted the sanctions on Cuba due to international pressure, or did he up the fines to Americans that travel there?
Did Bush cave into the euroweenies who complained about the size of the corporate tax cuts he signed into law? "
The only downside to posting such an impressive list like that is that it's even more obvious that SECURING OUR BORDERS is something Bush CHOOSES NOT TO DO and in a post 9/11 world, he does so at risk to national security. Clearly he has an open borders, keep the cheap labor coming, agenda.
Is that globalist or greedy though?
"Economics 101."
The success of our economy is entirely dependent on one thing......
"Although they broke the law by illegally crossing our borders ... our city's economy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported," he said. "The same holds true for the nation." Bloomberg
cheap, illegal labor.
"Is that globalist or greedy though?"
When it comes to our national security and Bush's refusal to secure the border, does it matter? As far as I'm concerned, it's both and more, none good.
Well, its Bush (as all the presidents before him)givng into the hotel and agricultural industry. At least he's doing something now. The National guard helping on the border is way overdue.
As far as I am concerned, no addtional laws need to be passed. Just enforce the current ones and fund a fence. End of story.
That's what the open borders/amnesty crowd of NWO one-worlders would have you believe. LOL These neocons and liberatarians need a long, long time out.
ROFL!
Damn pissant...great rant.
Ssshhh! You're not supposed to bother them with facts!
They want to believe that the US doesn't manufacture anything anymore, that the middle class is being forced into abject poverty.
The fact is that Americans are richer than ever. Even the poorest Americans are richer than ever, richer than 95% of the rest of the world.
Bttt
Tanks. ;o)
I refute the entire damn thing and its underlying premise. I'm not going to "fisk" it.
You can always count on Dr. Seuss for sublime wisdom. ;o)
I agree with that. That the socialists, of which there are many, in the CFR are worthless. And I will tell you Bush & Cheney have next to nothing to do with them.
Good Lord, that's a mouthful.
:o)
