Tariffs won't work, will cost the consumers 40% more for everything imported, as well as the imported parts for domestically made durable goods, would cause massive job loss as our exports to the rest of the world dwindled to nothing at all in no time flat.

Are you vieing for a spot on Obama’s cabinet?

America is about innovation and creativity. What we need is for the government on every level to get out of the way and stop taxing success. And take all that grant/bribe money and use it for highways,roads and bridges.

“Since the adoption of the 1934 Trade Agreements Act, the United States government has engaged in a free trade policy which has destroyed or endangered important segments of our domestic agriculture and industry, undercut the wages of our working men and women, and totally destroyed or shipped abroad the jobs of hundreds of thousands of workers. This free trade policy is being used to foster socialism in America through welfare and subsidy programs.”

Most of the “credit” extended to the USA is based upon previous generations of wealth created here by a free society.

It will not return until We the People divorce ourselves from “progressive taxation” and fund the Federal operations of the country in the manner they were intended by the Founders.
