America is losing due to our own liberalism. China is a disaster, with the majority of their people living in poverty, and only a very very very tiny minority of connected folks buying expensive stuff.

End America’s domestic liberalism, and our economy will rock, regardless of what China does. China is not the problem. American liberals are. But China is not winning, not in the sense that the Chinese people are winning. They are not.

The first time I ever heard of the Cowpens was in relation to her former Captain Bligh:

If I could, I’d buy that ship a beer.

No, you posted a public comment in the news forum of an internet bulletin board. Any other questions?

America is losing because of wealth redistribution. We’re constantly told its because of our high labor rates. America doesn’t even make the top ten on highest cost of living places in the world.

Depending on the list you have to go down to about 15th to find an American city.

Its not labor costs.

TV's are made in the USA. A very few but a little:

TV's Made in the USA Directory

*Element is an American Company. While we have many International Trade Partners and Retail Customers, it has been a high-priority of ours to produce products in America! After 2 years of hard work and planning, we are proud to announce that Element will begin to produce some of its large screen size TV's in the Detroit, Michigan Area – effective January 2012! To our knowledge, Element will be the only brand of TV's assembled in America. We hope you will look and ask for these products if you are shopping for TV because America Matters

Depends on the brand.

The Chinese are serious about gaining control of what they call the first ring of islands. We need to help our allies in the region. It's also will past time that we re-armed our surface ships with anti-ship missiles and get a replacement for the aging Harpoon missile.

And that precisely is the comment I expect from someone who is "concerned" where, and to whom, I transfer my wealth.

We are losing because of both…….but the main thing are not the pay to labor, it’s the govt regulations on top of the pay to the worker.

But again, your cost of lving comparison is not relevant……not that you would ever understand that.

...Element will be the only brand of TV’s assembled in America...

Note that they don't say produced. Just assembled. Probably could even get that done for half the cost in Mexico also.

Allow me to quote you: “The only way to bring back American jobs is to act more like the Chinas of the world.”

Sure, only its not YOUR wealth thats a concern. Its the companies being run by foreign nationals who are transferring their wealth and wealth production out of the US.

But you’re ok with the one way street that makes up our trade policy.
