I do believe the current estimate is that only 2.4% of all products sold in the USA are made in China.
WE NEED A SOURCE else this is just a rumor.
You should both turn your talents to figuring out how to keep natural gas prices in the United States low ~ we are shortly going to be EXPORTING more of it, and that's going to bring the world price home to us in spades.
(Not to hijack the thread, but there you have it)
Not to sound cynical but if we told the Secret Service guys to sleep in the alley if they want to go whoring ~ that’d satisfy your “taxpayer hotel room’ segment ~ but really now, do we want the Secret Service guys to be sleeping in alleys or whoring/
I have a VERY low tolerance level for anyone who cheerleads Argentina's nationalization of a private oil company's assets. And who can't be bothered to allow hard facts into their views on the subject.

That's what I want, but Sara is too busy erecting strawmen about how we export our crude to be bothered. Instead, she launches screeds that could be right from DU.

The thread got hijacked long ago, no problem.
Argentina is full of nazis ~ they never did a denazification ~ we could start with their president ~ maybe some waterboarding, then drinks, a big steak dinner?
Big difference between sleeping on the street and ‘not whoring’ on our dime. May I assume you work for the government? Did you know the wealthiest zip codes in the United States are all clustered around DC? There’s a reason for that...
Consider the security risks involved in whoring in foreign countries - is that a factor for you? Here’s my suggestion - maybe they can do their whoring in DC - lots of hookers there to grease the happiness of our upper middle class ‘public servants’... Or they can operate out of their Mom’s home - give the excuse that they’re on a short business trip. Or tell the wife they’re going out for ice cream. Whatever.
Or maybe like other ‘oh so entitled’ government workers, they could just go to Vegas and spend a few hundred thousand dollars partying. And if the citizens don’t like it, they can look them up and cause ‘trouble’ for them. You know - the North Korean style of ‘getting it all’.
Did you know people in the private sector are downsizing? That jobs are doubling up? That benefits and pensions are being completely done away with?
While we get to watch our ‘public servants’ give themselves more and more stuff.
If real workers did that the companies they work for would go under. But each and every government worker compares themselves to the CEO’s of major companies - not to the workers or management of those companies. I guess when the country goes broke the government workers will ‘do’ a North Korea. Let the population eat tree bark to keep their lifestyles going.
Big difference between sleeping on the street and not whoring on our dime. You must work for the government not to know the difference.
My thought was that it was irrational to imagine they should do either, particularly while on foreign duty. They are there 24/7 to do what they are supposed to do ~
My apology - I did read you wrong. Appears we're on the same page - sorry 'bout that...
No, no, not the same page ~ you just wanted to make you think our Secret Service guys should be in their hotel or in a brothel, and no where else...... ROTFLMAO
I thought it was a security risk and that they should do their whoring at home... You don’t agree with that?
