Yeah but isn't that point? She is going to try and the leftist will take over and the globalists will be to blame. The right owns globalism. The USA was fine before we starred importing almost EVERYTHING. We won 2 world wars making our own things.
I can well remember when I was a kid recognizing that a lot of things imported from Japan were just junk. That radically changed over the years to the point that the Japanese made innovations that allowed them to dominate the color tv market for many years.
The American response was to complain about Japanese monopolistic practices. The complaints were justified but the American approach should have included insisting that some of our industries use the same laser-like focus that the Japanese were using to improve quality. Instead, many American industries, like the auto makers, continued to make mediocre products while their employee parking lots filled up with imported cars.
If American manufacturers behaved during World War II the way they responded to foreign competition later, we may well have lost the war.
The bottom line is that an intelligent, well-educated person in a foreign land who is equipped with modern technology will be more productive than a less intelligent, uneducated person in America and the free enterprise system will ensure that the former has a better standard of living than the latter. Anything else will require artificial intervention and a cost to the productive people who are forced to subsidize that intervention.
That "innovation" was a closed market while we foolishly let in everything duty free. The American worker has been screws by Free Traitors™. So stop with the BS propaganda.
The bottom line is that an intelligent, well-educated person in a foreign land who is equipped with modern technology will be more productive than a less intelligent, uneducated person in America and the free enterprise system will ensure that the former has a better standard of living than the latter.
This is such BS. It is American hating idiots like you that will take us to socialism. FREE MARKETS END AT THE WATERS EDGE PAL.
I don't know how to respond if you don't provide more specifics.
For example, do you agree that Japanese cars during the 1970s were vastly superior in quality to American cars?
Hey V.K. For the record, Greta called back that sentence and apologized.
I like that suggestions a lot! Don’t let the stain of “Impeached President” be put on this great President.
Yes, saw her 180. Poor child. A perfect puppet for her puppet master. Because a child, able to say and do anything with no push back or harsh, resounding feedback. Imagine this child, grown. Heaven forbid!
Yes, and her parents are actors and used their publicity and influence to mould the Greta we see more than her followers suspect.
I’ve always said that I’m probably here only because Truman A-bombed Japan.
My mother was Chief of Nursing at West Point during the war. On August 4th, 1945 my mother and her nurses boarded a troop train heading for New Orleans, and then a troopship for the South Pacific to participate in the invasion of Japan.
And since the Japanese were known for trying to sink hospital ships, there’s probably a good chance that she wouldn’t have survived the war.
In this case, she and her nurses were stopped in Birmingham, AL on the 7th, and then turned around back to West Point on the 10th.
