The U.S. Constitution, American boarders & Sovereignty are not a fad and have no expiration date.
This is ooga-booga stuff. You want to play make believe and think we can go back to ludicrous isolationism of the pre-WW2 vintage, I got a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn.
You’ve already sold out America.
You ain’t got no bridges any longer.
You’re burning them.
Nor should it, but that's not the issue here. It's too bad isolationism isn't a fad. The very worst kind of political naivete.
You got a screw loose or something, pal ? WTF are you going on about ? Find the nearest closet and go listen to some Ron Paul and go to your happy place. Let the grown ups deal with foreign policy.
McCollum had the experience and I think the name recognition to win. Mel ran an nasty campaign IIRC.
If you think you’re a grown up “in charge”, think again, buddy.
With “grown ups” like you in charge, we’ll be steam-rolled by the Chinese and the illegals in their broken down trucks rolling over our borders in no time.
You must have friends in the corporate world...because all that NAFTA and the NAU is doing is creating profits for the elitists as the middle class is burdened, by taxes, crime, and and the costs for their “wonderful globalist world.”
If you think I’m a friend or fan of illegals, you got another thing coming. Those folks have already invaded my neighborhood and have turned it into a slum. And I and my family are audiologically raped each and every day. I want them gone yesterday. But I think you guys equate active engagement with the rest of the world with open borders. There is a gigantic difference. I’m a “globalist” in that I believe in nation building elsewhere so that these ILLEGALS won’t flood across our borders when these f*ckwits in DC won’t enforce the damn laws !
I believe in America and our Constitution, not in corporate greedholders whose only and sole concern is making things cheap and ensuring, as much as possible, it costs them nothing.
Their wishes are antithetical to American values. It’s one thing to make a profit from hard work...that’s the American way. It’s altogether different when, in the process of making a profit, you sell out your country because....it’s expedient to a companies bank account.
NAFTA’s done NOTHING but bring greater decay and violence to Mexico and our border states....exactly the opposite of what the corporate greedholders and the politicians’, whose pockets were lined by the same, claimed. People like me, back in the 1980’s, saw and knew what would happen: more illegals in this country, and worse conditions in Mexico.
What I didn’t anticipate at the time, however, is that it would benefit US companies which had earlier moved its businesses to Mexico, to China. This created even faster declines in Mexico and even more flooding of illegals into the U.S.
Our country is being ruined because of globalism. It’s become a service economy depending on outsiders to sustain it and Americans to purchase now-defective Chinese products.
The manufacturing industry has taken a crap. But this isn’t good enough for the globalists. They are now moving to ship out the longshoremen’s jobs to Mexicans, too. Guess what? Our longshoreman aren’t the only ones who’ll be out of a job....those communities and businesses that depend on longshoreman to spend their monies, locally, won’t have that money to spend any longer. Mom and pop stores will go out of business.
But that’s not all. U.S. taxpayers will be, thanks to the political sell-outs, paying for Mexican infrastructure for the movement of longshoreman jobs in Mexico so that the goods can come from China, into Mexico, and on up into the U.S. You see, it’s “cheaper” that way than having U.S. workers unload ships, and U.S. workers haul by truck.
And....we get to pay, as in tax dollars, for the roads that will connect the ports in Mexico to the Trans-Corridor roads into the U.S. And, to top it off with a cherry, SPANISH companies, after the U.S. taxpayers build the roads, will get to charge, by toll, any citizen who then wants to drive on the roads WE paid for. Spanish companies get to profit off U.S. taxpayer paid for roads....for 99 years.
You globalists can go suck eggs.
What you just posted is very real & is really happening. It was all planned many years in advance in the shadows by globalist elites. And when average hard working everyday people started to speak up, they were brushed off as paranoid nuts. Now it’s really going down & still we are waved away as persona-non-grata.
Exactly right, Rott. Exactly right. I guess when the steamroller's come mow down the pro-globalists own homes, they'll finally feel and see what all the "noise" has been about for so long.
Saying “I told you so” about this sucks!
Yeah...I’d rather not have to say anything, or at the very least, not have to keep repeating myself for.......20+ years.
After I read that it reminded me of the talking-point-du jour from Wash. D.C. a while back. When asked about what the middle class should do when cheap unskilled labor was illegally coming in through the back door & high skilled jobs were bailing out through outsourcing & H1B visa’s the front door. The standard answer was “Americans need to shift to the service industry.”.
We are to be servants.
We are but serfs and peasants in their eyes, to the very people WE elected to SERVE US!
It's truly outrageous!!
Adios to illegal aliens.
Good riddance. Martinez puts his ethnicity and his allegiance to that ethnicity above any allegiance to America.
“I think most of us would feel the same whether these invaders were Scandanavian, Canadian, Italian or whatever.”
Yes.
