That's stupid thinking. Why do you really care where
it's made? Borders are arbitrary. For things that are
made in the U.S., do you care that they're made in your
state? For things that are made in your state, do you
care that they're made in your county?

Stupid thinking? I care where products are made because I want Americans
who need manufacturing jobs to have decent manufacturing jobs in the
United States, jobs where they can turn out good products and earn a
living for their families. Good manufacturing jobs help us maintain a
good manufacturing economy, and keep us from being overly dependent upon
other nations.

You sound like a one-worlder.

I think you've spent too much of your life reading Ayn Rand and taking
it seriously. You're really quite the smug, arrogant ass.

Thanks LZ.

Mr. Jonathan Ball should probably look into Swiss history a little more.

It's pretty clear they're a mercantile lot living under the
misperception of neutrality.

The Jewish people are just one of many who've been stolen from and then
stiff armed by Swiss banking laws. There are folks around the globe
who've been screwed by creeps, thugs and the like whose ill-gotten gains
are "protected" by the Swiss banking system.

It's a pretty country hiding some of the ugliest secrets in the world.

Ball probably is very young,

No. $50 says I'm older and have more documentable
education than you, putz.


That's Mr. Putz to you, buttwiper. And while you may be older, I doubt
you have more documentable formal education. If you do, your daddy must
have bought your degrees for you, as George H.W. Bush bought them for
his dumb son, Dubya.

I'm not sure what you're having trouble believing, but perhaps things like
this will snap you out of whatever trance you're in:

What about the other ones I posted? I posted three different articles
and there were a lot more to choose from.

I think you are in de Nile up to your neck.

Yes: stupid thinking.

No Americans "need" manufacturing jobs. You're proving
you subscribe to stupid thinking.

to have decent manufacturing jobs in the
United States, jobs where they can turn out good products and earn a
living for their families. Good manufacturing jobs help us maintain a
good manufacturing economy,

Something we don't need and already don't have.

and keep us from being overly dependent upon
other nations.

We can't be dependent on them unless they're dependent
on us.

You sound just stupid.

We still do. We make those things where we have some
comparative advantage. Increasingly, the things we
make are not tangible. That doesn't make them any less
valuable.


Sorry, I've been listening to these same bull**** arguments for over
20 years,

No, you clearly *haven't* been listening to them. You
very clearly don't understand comparative advantage,
and patterns of trade. You are economically illiterate.



No, I'm not "economically illiterate," I just don't have my head up my
ass, like you do.

You ARE economically illiterate. You don't understand
a thing about it.

You are obviously a brainwashed fool who would
deliberately destroy America with your idiotic theories about
economics, theories that have absolutely no basis in reality.

They very much have their basis in reality, stupid.
They are formulated based on *observing* reality.

WTF is "documentable education"? I know a lot of people who have degrees
who can't tie their shoelaces. Education is by NO means an indicator of
intelligence. Many degrees are merely certificates of attendance. Or
merely those bestowed by The Mighty Wizard.

Hardly. The correct term is self confident. I am self
confident, you are smug. Older, wiser people like me
know the difference.

Allow me to suggest your self-confidence is unearned.

No.

No.

This guy is a loudmouthed fool whose references are as paper thin as
whatever foreskins he's got. Ask him about Switzerland or the
Employment Policy Foundation and you'll find him a font of
misinformation.

You know he's an idiot if he thinks he's older and has more education
than Harry! ;^)
