Only the People of America can create a recovery. Buy American and pay off your credit debt.

well the whole debate of foreign made goods and us made goods is us made goods cost more and are below specs while foreign made goods are cheaper and relatively similar specs if not better than us made goods. O_o

even if chinas currency appreciated to equality with american money, we would just end up paying more for their now very expensive products. We could not produce domestically because our manufacturing sector is gutted and the factories dont exist or are falling apart. it would take 5-10 years to invest in building new manufacturing infastructure be we cant even do that because we dont have the capital to do it.

Let's ship some more jobs overseas!
Let's bring the national debt to 18 trillion!
Let's be part of the problem and not part of the solution and We will get what we deserve! A very grim future! Keep your eyes closed, keep your mouth shut, act like everything is fine, continue to ignore what is happening in our country and you will get the surprise of your life in the end! Stop, take a good look in the mirror and dont be part of the problem, be part of the solution.

@AtlasShruggery I would say he owns large amounts of gold. HIs interest is to drive gold prices up. His support of attacking Iran is because he is a globalist, and Iran must be brought into the global fold, just like iraq.

Schiffty Pete is a Republican. What else would you expect? Schiffty combines the economic policies of Herbert Hoover with the foreign policy of Dick Cheney.
I wonder if Schiffty's call to attack Iran is connected to his prediction that the price of gold will rise to $5,000 per ounce?

WHO CARES how long it takes to buy a pair of Nikes?? Manufacturers pay a LIVING WAGE to the employees. The employees are blessed to have the opportunity to work for a living. Their wages are perfectly in line with domestic living standards. They are NOT underpaid.

Thats not true they are the peasant class, and they are 1.2 million strong in China. They are peasant farmers. They cannot afford to buy the products they manufacture for export. For example a peasant working in a shoe factory in Bangladash would have to work a month to buy a pair of Nike Shoes. Low cost manufacturing is nothing more than greater profits for multinational corperations. Some folks don't care how they make money others do not.

Employees do the work because in their country "20c per hour" IS A LIVING WAGE. Low-cost manufacturing is a blessing to the employee and the employer.



We need to make and buy things that are made in the US. Have some pride in things that are made in our country. I know some people will have 10 reasons why they buy foreign but keep in mind that we need jobs. You may not be out of a job now but if we keep on the road we are on, you or someone you love or know will be jobless.

I care, and thats the difference, you will work folks for .15/hr send them home to live in dirt floor huts, under the most adverse conditions, all for the sole purpose of making a extra buck. Only greed would call that a blessing. If thats your concept of a blessing I hope you recieve unaltered blessings.
So you beleive if domestic living standards are malnurished, ignorant people, that justifies working them, producing products for export, and sending them home in the same conition.
