why have the rich gotten MUCH wealthier in the US, vs the middle

yet you REFUSE to address this issue

I've explained it 50 times in words you should be able to understand.

LAST time:

40 years ago - you want a automobile

Mines were constructed to mine iron to make steel to process and put
into
tools that had to be designed, engineered and built in separate
companies
so
designers could design a part to assemble to a vehicle that other
engineers,
metallurgists, chemists, capital equipment builders, machinery builders,
paint manufacturers, trim designers engineers and assembly people could
work
in a plant built by steel makers, engineers, managers, architects and on
and
on and on and on -

Today: A foreign company is offered a site at specialty rates (tax
exemptions), are granted foreign trade zone status to avoid tariffs,
import
engineering, import management, import styling, import capital
machinery,
import tools and dies, import raw materials, put the pieces together
with
hicks at half the rate paid 25 years ago, and tell the ignorant masses
its
"made in America."

Multiply that scenario by thousands of products and thousands of
components
and thousands of companies, and you have "the rich" getting richer and
the
ignorant masses taking it in the ass.

It is my observation that the ignorant masses ENJOY taking it in the ass
(with all due respect to Brawny Swank) as long as a criminal politician
makes them "feel" better and promises meals on wheels or $300 to "make
it
all better.

Use Vaseline, it's cheaper, and you don't have to vote to gain the
thrill.

If you don't grasp the demise of CORE industries in North America for
the
demise of the previous middle class, you're not paying attention or both
of
your brain cells are on non speaking terms.

You should be ****ED about the demise of the U.S., instead of blaming an
entity that has no connection to you and that you've never met or
interacted
with. You also do not have the right or priveledge to change the
policies
by the DC parasites that made it possible; you only have the option to
not
participate, but like most other "Americans," "somebody else do
somehthing.!" Engage!

Sounds like you're the one who likes taking it up the ass...



Up yours. Snerk.

Actually, it was yours.
