They don't become any more competitive of course - they become less competitive because they become acclimated to an environment where the Government picks winners and losers on the basis of union membership and green ideology.
Fortunately economic reality is bigger even than the US Government. When the Dollar Federal Reserve Note's reserve status is lost then the resulting horrific train-wreck should have at least one salutary effect - the Government's ability to endlessly buck reality will have been destroyed.
And China will rule.
Wake up, and stop working to destroy America.
We need America stronger. Now.
When you view foreigners as barbarians there’s really only two options. Avoid them or attack them.
The key step in doing this would be to bring government spending outside of defense back to where it was 100 years ago, 4% of the economy. Last year, the Federal government spent 19% on non-defense items.
Agreed strongly.
The thing is, the more jobs we have here, the less we spend.
See how that works? :)
Most of it runs through mountainous terrain. A veritable playground for tactical attack aircraft flying under the radar, and SOF teams passing intel. Tibetan insurgents could be funded to bring down rock slides and avalanches.
... and you bring back the jobs by making America an attractive place for capital.
Right now America is a minefield for capital. Many parts of your country are pure poison as far as wealth-production goes.
IIRC it costs a cool billion dollars more to build a factory in California than in South Korea solely due to legal and EPA burdens.
Whereas Texas welcomes wealth-producers. It's no accident that Texas is doing well.
Eagle diesel is making a difference to industry relocation - but places like California won't see any improvement. This is because the California state is full of Marxist bandits ready to mug anyone who dares create wealth in their fiefdom.
Who knows?
They might even give it some happy name like “Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere”.
That would be ironic, since Japan’s invasion of China was one of the compelling reasons for FDR’s policy towards Japan.
I’m pretty-sure they wouldn’t use that exact name, given it’s origins, but they would use something similar.
Chinas Gold Purchases From Hong Kong Expand to Record: 223 Tons in MARCH ALONE
So Japan’s top newspaper should publish an article about re-establishing the vassal state of Manchouko...
Just saying...
I’m glad I enjoyed a few great years on that wonderful island.
... but maybe I haven't checked for a long time ...
