What BANKRUPTED AMERICA is the silly notion that Socialist ideas can work here, just because WE haven’t tried it, yet!!
American manufacturing has been OUTFORCED by Democrat policies since the mid-70’s, to get us to now, where we no longer have the productive base to support runaway gub’ment entitlements. And all in the name of vote-buying and centralization of power.
Dems have killed the goose that laid the Golden Egg, and NOW they want an increase in Golden Egg production!!!
