Wow, what a screed of Strawmen there. I take it you believe, by your apparent sarcasm, that if someone does not agree with our job/industry exporting trade policies, they must be against all trade. I take it you believe that if someone has a problem with mass illegal immigration they must want to gun down Mexicans at the border. Good Grief. Tell me:

Do You like our present One-Way trading relationship with the PRC? You know, that nice communist country that threatened to Nuke America 3 years ago and is furiously building up their military with the help of American trade money and technological know how so they can exert their influence throughout the pacific rim--and Lord knows where else.

Do You like the notion of an America without borders?

Do You like the idea of Americans paying for the staggering social costs of Illegal Aliens?

Do You like the idea of offshoring America’s critical industries and technology to socialist/communist countries when those very same countries refuse to allow America any meaningful access to their markets?

Evidently you do.

How are you helping end those liberal policies? By promoting Third Party Wing nuts?

Not especially, but I do like the idea of capitalism and free markets in China. Could catch on. Would be much better than communism in China.

I like our borders just fine. Thanks.

No I don't like taxpayer provided social services for illegals. Don't like it for legals either. Nor anyone else for that matter, natural born American citizens, immigrants or whatever.

Offshoring per se doesn't necessarily bother me. Not in love with the idea of giving our technology to our enemies though.

"Do You like our present One-Way trading relationship with the PRC?"

Do you have a two way trade relationship with your grocer?

Your barber?

Your dry cleaner?

Your auto mechanic?

Your doctor?

Are you endangering your personal financial status because you buy from the local Piggly Wiggly, but they don't buy anything from you?
