Thanks for your service.
Actually I wasn’t in the service, so I commend you for that. I was overseas for several years however, and learned to appreciate America quite a bit, by not being here.
Not sure I understand your attitude is all.
America is a special place. As Americans we have a responsibility to keep it strong, and I don’t sense that in part, in your former posts.
We need to keep America strong.
That means we as Americans, need to advocate for American companies to hire people right here at home.
We import a whole huge ... boatload of stuff from Communist China.
Our own companies, are building up the world’s largest communist nation, very rapidly.
We need to support American jobs.
That is all I am saying. Support American jobs.
We need to grow America.
All of us.
Look you can feel good about America, advocate for America, wave Old Glory if you want. It will not change the fact that The People, and their government see Corporations and wealthy people as objects to loot. As long as that is the case the inexorable result will be corporations and wealthy individuals will find other ways of doing business. They will move overseas. They will figure out other ways of doing business. The USA has absolutely no inherent right to wealth and productivity.
These things must be earned through competition in an international market. but instead “we” loot corporations and individuals. So they go elsewhere. No amount of flag waving will change that.
