There are few factories where menher potential suitorscould have stable jobs.
Theres no energy moving into those communities; nothing new is on the horizon.
We cannot continue down this path.
Its time to move manufacturing back to America.
Trump was keeping his promises to change that. Its what made him the target and us with him.
Yeah. Good story, but you were supposed to get back to the girl.
Like, ten years later you happened thru the same town and suddenly had an abcessed tooth, and accidentally found her working as a dental assistant, yes, a dental assistant, with a picture of a nice looking young gentleman, a young black gentleman actually, and two kids, having been rescued from her circumstances by certain members of her extended family, who helped her get rehabbed, GED’d, and into the local community college and thence to work.

This is an excellent post..Note that the urban centers are where this virus is the worst...add to that the percentage of crime, abortions, lousy educational systems and you have reality staring you in the face.

Maybe this virus will wake some people up.

In my mind it was a foregone conclusion what company’s were going to do.
However, Americans of ages past endured more hardship without turning to drugs and moral degradation, and it is the spiritual decline of the country (including even in the evangelical churches) that is behind its choices to go liberal, immoral, and unwise in economics.
Concerning the latter, China was not simply happy to satisfy America's love for low prices at any cost, but I believe it was a calculated move on their part to vastly diminish the industrial might that was integral in enabling America to win 2 world wars.
Somebody just missed being rolled.
No mention of union shakedowns driving business out, and lawyers using stupid juries to parasitize companies. They deserve some of the blame as well.
Yes, excellent article.
