How about ending Free Trade with Communist China, NAFTA, CAFTA....and all the other Liberal Globalist trade deals.
You can put America back to work by bringing jobs back.
Too many support Free Trade endorsed by the UN, George Soros, Al Gore, Jimmy Carter, the Clintons, Obama, etc....Looks like the US is looking more like the EU everyday
We have Economic Failure....
And get rid of AA, disallow frivolous lawsuits, stop bashing ‘big business’ and start actually punishing criminals.
I don't want to work for some feather-bedded domestic industry, making uncompetitive products for as long as the Gov'mnt sends me a cheque.
And I don't want my family to be forced to buy expensive crud from some feather-bedded domestic industry, just so that socialists like you can claim you're 'bringing jobs back to America'.
In a free trade society, we get to buy the best and cheapest of everything. In your version of America, we'd all be forced to buy Volts.
The American manufacturing base has been eroded by excessive taxes, unionisation, excessive regulations and the minimum wage.
If we want America to become the default manufacturer for the stuff we buy, then America must reduce its internal barriers to wealth production. It must compete.
But that's not easy. Competing is hard. It's far easier politically to forget about wealth-production, and to impose tariffs and subsidies.
Tariffs and subsidies practically force Americans to buy expensive crud from feather-bedded domestic suppliers rather than cheap stuff that works from e.g. Asia. The result is that everybody gets poorer - but at least no voters had to compete in the real world.
The solution to outsourcing is either to compete, or to recognize that you can't compete and so move into another field of endeavor.
But using governmental fiat and protectionism to stop outsourcing is not a solution: it is sheer wealth-destruction: the transformation of American industry into a welfare state. It would be disastrous.
Hope this was helpful.
