As usual, you can't even support your own arguments. Our exports
exceed our imports? Actually, it's the reverse, but it's not "far
exceeded". It's about $1.3T export to about $2T import.

Read what I wrote again

"The fact remains our exports are far exceeded by our imports."

It is easy to say I am wrong if you can't ****ing read.

Using your numbers ($700B more in imports) I think 153% is "far
exceeded".

My apologies. I'm just used to you muddling the facts when you try to
make your "****ing" arguments. Thanks for being civil.

As I said, there an imbalance, but it's not out of line historically,
as per 2002.

Try again.

When did I say this was a recent problem?
You do notice when the current slide really started tho.
(1997-1998)

You didn't, but you implied that it somehow has to be fixed
immediately. It doesn't. It's a long term problem that needs long term
solutions.

The short term problem is unemployment, which is easily fixed if the
Republicans were actually interested in anything more than the next
election.
