We know globalization is happening. The only thing we can do about it is get tough. Agreed?

There are other things we can do....:)

Agreed?

Yes and no. I will agree that we're being shafted. I will also agree that not everyone is playing by the same rules. I will also agree that the tax bill the Dems will hand us from this will rival Socialist Sweden before they are done.

But I will agree that something needs to be done. I just have no clue what yet aside from arguing "fair trade" as opposed to "one-sided [so-called 'free'] trade." Building a better mousetrap doesn't seem to be working....:(

I agree. Easy to do since failure is not an option. We are not Rome. America, with all her flaws and mistakes - just as any of us, will be alive and kicking on top of any s***heap the planet goes onto.

I say, go nuts with the deficit. Slash spending to the bone and turn it into nanotech, genetic engineering, quantum physics, fusion reactors, ect. And, most important,
advanced propulsion systems to get me off this rock 'cause that probably won't happen fast enough.
