Well, I thought we were getting out of agriculture and buggy whip industries so that we could export high tech goods to the world. Did you hear that we just recently became net importers of food? Do you have any idea what you guys are setting us up for? I was worried about manufacturing, and now we are becoming dependent on the rest of the world for food! It seems like you guys are going to get your way until we've driven over the cliff and it is obvious to even the casual observer.
Being net importers of food is bad? But you just said:
They are finally buying food? Wow, what an advanced economy we have.

Make up your mind. Importing food = bad. Exporting food = bad.
