Taxation is a problem.
Regulation is a problem.
Unions are a problem.
Off-shoring jobs is a problem.
But the bottomline is that in a global economy, machines will do a lot of the productive work, and the manual input that is required will be paid at the level required to support a guy in China who receives no benefits and has a life expectancy of 50.
You cannot maintain a nice suburban American lifestyle in a world where the global economy holds sway. Sure, some people will hold on to that dream, but most Americans will live like serfs.
Fiddling with taxes, regulations, tariffs, off-shoring, or unions will not really alter the new reality. Most humans are going to live in a society in which their labor is really not valued — so how will they survive? The current answer is: Socialism and benefits from the government. What we need is a better answer than that, and so far, I really don’t think anyone has a better answer. And that totally sucks.
We’ve also allowed 20 million or more illegal immigrants to take jobs here.
It is all a corruption of our legal system—the principles of our Constitution have been totally undermined. It used to be illegal to do business with fascist communist governments and enrich them like we have been doing—Kissinger infiltration of Marxist ideology....We need to get back to Legal Law....and dump the irrational judges’ rulings that have turned our laws into a joke.
We used to be a nation based on “Common Sense” and because we have dumped this philosophy of Locke, Blackstone, and all the Founders of the US, we are no different than any other country. Just Law is law based on the laws of nature and God’s Laws. Laws that are not based on these principles are unequal-arbitrary law—Positivism of Austin and Mills and Bentham is incompatible with our legal system and has corrupted it. Supra-Positive Law is the highest law of the land in our US—always has been and even has been applied in Germany in the 40’s and at Birmingham Jail by MLK. There is a God—where our rights are derived—so we can not go by Marxist ideology. It is incompatible with our philosophy—every single aspect of it. Marxism creates serfs—makes slaves of the producers. They use force of government to create slavery which is no justice and no freedom and gives unjust power of a few over others.
We need to bet back to the intent of our Constitution and rid ourselves of Marxists that take oaths to a Constitution they loathe. It is a fraud and unconstitutional.
They are intentionally destroying our legal system—Just Law—to create chaos and riots and revolution. The Fabian socialists like Dewey, John Maynard Keynes, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. all new to destroy us from within for we were too powerful to attack from without. They have been undermining everything in the country since before the 1930’s.
The public education system has to be dismantled to end the Marxist indoctrination of our children and the destruction of their morality. The Marxist indoctrination textbooks have to be burned....they destroy the intellect...destroy knowledge....destroy respect for law and “white men” vilify white people, vilify capitalism, and vilify the God and Christianity in particular...They elevate the dysfunctional and perverted to create a dysfunctional non-thinking mass of ACORN workers. They are useful idiots who can not run a country—or think in any coherent way. They are obamabots that need teleprompters and puppet strings so they can function and know what to think.
The Brave New World and 1984 gave us a picture of where we were headed with this centralized behemoth of a government, but we failed to see it. We are almost there.
Can we not at least give this small group of selfish people who helped our jobs go overseas, a face and name? Henry Kissinger, George Mitchell and countless others. Let’s give them the credit they deserve.
And give the mainstream media credit for making it sound like such a good thing. We now have the non-pouting, mature information society, etc.
It has a lot to do with feminism and currency policy. Having children is becoming a ‘burden’ to some women and IS becoming more expensive. People use to have families of seven with one income, but the value of the money is on decline constantly were it wasn’t always.
