Pat's been right about Trade and Immigration for at least a decade,

He has?? He was saying the Japanese were going to destroy us economically over a decade ago. He said after NAFTA we were done for. A decade later our economy is as strong as it has ever been while Japan's has been in a decade-long decline.

Yup. The economy's just fine. Why--Clinton only had to massage Commerce numbers for two years to show us that the economy's just fine.

Two years of massaging and three years of depression, 2.7 million people who WANT to work are not working, every State in the Union has a budget deficit because tax revenues are down (that's income taxes...)

Hell, it's the best of all possible worlds.

Not only are you uneducated, you are plain stupid.

He certainly was right when he said it. Had the Japanese not floated their currency and become "fair" capitalists, who knows what would have happened. As long as the Chinese currency does not float, then they will be in a position to take advantage - to capitalize - on their advantage.
