We no longer produce what we need to sustain ourselves, we import much more than we export, and we are selling off our assets and taking on massive debts to sustain a standard of living we can no longer afford. Not only was this not the way we became a superpower but it is a sure way to lose this status

We have plenty of water, food, coal, oil, natural gas, and porn.

What else do we need?

Nothing that can't be fixed with:

1. Totally revamping our tax laws to encourage capital formation and operating a business.
2. Eliminating way too many business-unfriendly laws.

Essentially, the US economy since 2009 has been propped up by Federal Reserve quantitative easing. It's time for the type of real reforms that will drive a true broad-based economic recovery.

A tariff on imported manufactured goods in way over due. Fight fire with fire.
