CedarDave is right. First the textile jobs went overseas, and we were told not to worry, we had the best manufacturing industries. Then these industries became more automated or left for China (even furniture manufacture). Then we were told, don't worry, we have all the great jobs in information technology. Now they're departing too. What's left? Walmart associates selling Chinese products, and trial lawyers.

Who are you letting tell you anything? Stop waiting for other's to fix it. Let's get together and start a new industry. Or something. If you are waiting for "they" to fix it, you'll wait your whole life.

Ok, let's do that. You go first since you seem to be more informed about this than I am. What kind of new industry do you propose we start?
