The U.S. auto
industry was the single largest core and vertically integrated industry in
North America. The U.S. said "c'mon in!" to Japan and Korea, and succumbed
to Japan's and Korea's policy of prohibition of your production/output.
What did you do about that? You buy Asian, lose your position, then bitch
about the scumbag politicians you put in office.


so here you sit blaming the middle class, ignoring the fact we simply
have no money.


Sorry, bub. It was the "middle class" that went for foreign products.


sorry, bub. it was the middle class that had no choice due to no wage
increases in 37 years

Age of consumerism. Low wage labor wins the day.


zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Can't count the times I heard "educated" people say the U.S. would be
the "brain" capital of the world and the scut work would be done overseas.
Fools. Having been among many people I knew the U.S. didn't have a lock
on brains.


gee. even the rich are starting to figure this out. having raped the
middle class, even wall street is starting to get scared about being
tarred and feathered by main street


BTW, do you know why there are all those Toyota, Honda and other foreign
plants in the U.S. providing work for Americans?
Ronald Reagan.
As stupid as he was, he forced the Japs to start building plants here
under threat of tariff on Jap cars.


gee. i guess that's why i never complained about toyota and
honda....having owned a honda for the last 10 years.

He was the last President to do ONE GOD DAMNED THING to protect American
jobs.


is that why wages dropped under reagan?

And that includes Obama.
That sap of yours allows billions of dollar of stimulus money to be
spent in China for his "green" energy initiative.


guess you think he wears a green eyeshade and keeps track of every
george washington that goes through the economy.

you do have a simplisitic view of reality, don't you?

why not check to see how the middle class got wrecked by the right
wing

As much as I find this Kurtz joker a putz, he's got some things right.
The pols have no ****ing idea how to fix the mess they allowed to
happen, and that includes Obama.


obama didn't create this mess. the american right did, with their
mythologies and the 'american dream' and 'guns and religion' bull****

You go ahead and tell me how the 6000 "middle class" jobs he created
overseas instead of here ain't ****ing the American "middle class."


6000 jobs?

you do realize bush lost 10 million, right?
