nope. they simply sent jobs overseas and left us no choice about wages
or places to work. they took advantage of the myth that, if you work
hard, you'll get ahead...an idea that you and other right wingers
love.

They WATCHED middle class jobs go overseas - they DID make it possible with
their one way trade agreements. YOU watched also, then merely went along
with the trend. You elected those people. They would NOT be there if it were
not for the incompetence of your voters. Even you can understand that fact.

Previously 3rd world countries are experiencing incredible growth through
implementation of capitalism. Their rulers, and their population,
understand elementary economics and buy domestically. 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.

I don't know if you ever leave your backyard, but if so, isn't it
embarrassing for you to carry a U.S. passport?

Why does such a large percentage (85-90%) of the population want someone
else to save them from their own behavior?

By the way, you never even tried to answer my question - too much MSNBC
between your brain cells?
