Folks of your ilk would come here on a daily basis promoting the good that would come from offshore outsourcing.

No, folks of your ilk come here on a daily basis in order to put words in our mouths. It's utterly boring, and predictable.

Someone asked you how many jobs can fit in a container . . . big deal. Others try to explain why those jobs are being offshored. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is more funny than watching a protectionist play stupid when that happens. But what do you expect, when your solution to the problem is to throw the government at it?

Is there anything in the world a protectionist cannot fix with another government program?

Now that’s funny. I think you’ve had too much Democrat government, you’ve adopted the Democrat/Alinsky way... accuse your opposition of what you do. Well played Saul.

No programs were called for from me, no government takeovers, simply some common sense, and a little intervention in leveling the playing field. Contrary to the strict libertarian thought, government does have some purpose, even if it screws up most of what it touches.

The fact that China is communist, fixes it’s currency, and manufactures supplies for our miliatry, none of that bothers you, I’m sure.

Look you won. Unrestricted free trade was the order of the day. The crumbling infrastructure, high unemployment and the contracting consumer economy, that’s nothing to worry about, even though you were warned, you got what you wanted.

It’s all good right? Have you enrolled your kids in Chinese classes?
