It’s not hard to stay within your means, but it takes indistry,not Government jobs.
China stays within their means because now they have our industry. Mexico now has 5% unemployment with our industry,
Japan , Korea, Thailand, they all have our industry. We allowed American plants to be moved there. In fact we encouraged it.
Now as for Putin, the guy is a dick, but he aint all wrong about America being a parasite.
We allowed our industry to go away and now we have to keep borrowing from the places it went.
I’d put a variation on what Putin said:
World capital is being sucked up and devoured by the friends of the Obama admin; unions, lawyers, activist groups and a small set of “G” companies (GE, Goldman, GM).
And the whole world will be made to starve.
What will they try to “get done” during the impending, engineered collapse...?? Ideas?
Fast & Furious shows they’re VERY comfortable with inducing a crisis in which people get killed —250 Mexican cops, so far, and 2 US offficers.
Exactly plus we screwed ourselves with “free trade”. We should have put up tariffs 20 years ago to protect industries and jobs. But the free traitors in DC have been calling the shots for years and making billions ofo this too. Sending industry overseas
Also blame the EPA and OSHA for stifling industry and production here, to where US companies have great incentives to move production outside our borders. To Mexico then China
Not all jobs can stay here since there is no way to get rid of all the regulations. Sure wish we could. Plus it depends on the foreign markets they serve. Heinz, for example, has some plants overseas because it is less expensive to ship from the Far East (Indonesia, I think) to that market than here. There are alot of jobs that could be here, like customer service call center representatives.
Perhaps, those that believes the US is a parasite, should look up the definition and consider it. Only those that do not believe in American exceptionalism could make the comparison. Don’t fall for Putin’s trick. If you still think the US is a parasite, then I would ask you to relocate.
