My former boss was writing articles for defense magazines way back in the 70's about the deterioration of our industrial base. He didn't know, just saw what was happening. It all fell on deaf ears. We used to have to have a Buy American Act, small business set asides, in military procurement and only go foreign source when there was no other options. Then for some unknown reason, the floodgates opened.
I don't want to venture into these waters wrt the rest of the questions, but it can't all be by accident. Some of it could be a direct result of our fall into massive immorality and all that goes with it.
I've some suspicions that aren't too conspirational but won't go there.
A quote from my #24.
It was the mid-to-late 1980's that it was becoming apparent what was happening to the industrial base, not the 70's.
Two decades takes us back to Bush I - I am afraid that this is all way bigger than BHO. He is an instrument for sure to move this agenda forward at a more rapid pace. If only only Black Americans knew how much BHO holds them in disdain. Like his BabyDaddy before him, he is not African, but Arab.
This link was posted a while back by another freeper. It makes a lot of things that have happened very clear.
