I’m just saying, all of the American companies which have offshored American manufacturing, no longer actually own their own manufacturing.

America no longer owns, our own manufacturing.

China is about to pass America, in production, if they haven’t already.

Wake up poeple. We have become almost asleep. Dreaming only of yet more offshoring.

America bring back production, right here to America.

Both of our parties are completely asleep about the threat this presents to America.

Our own political parties, are both selling out America.

Bring back American jobs.

“Our own political parties, are both selling out America.”

I was thinking after I hit “post” that I have never heard anybody say anything about reducing the burden of government. The purpose of any bureaucracy, like cancer, is to grow larger. Industry and government are part of a closed system. More of one means less of the other. But the “fun” of being an elected official is to have power. If you, the elected official, were to cut down the size and impact of government then you’d have less power. It’s the same reason we’ll never have a flat tax. Every line of the voluminous tax code represents dollars in the pocket of whichever politician got those lines into law.

You can’t bring back jobs until you change the environment. American Plating, in Mexico, is within walking distance of the US border. I’ll wager there are darned few plating facilities in the US because of the EPA. It’s not that they spill chemicals into the ground water, it’s that they MIGHT. As you drive South from LA you’ll see millions of dollars worth of copper cables going your way. Just across the border are two coal fired electrical plants that could never be built in California. They have no lines going into Mexico. All the money goes into Mexico and they were probably financed by the US taxpayer too.

No, you can’t just “bring jobs back.”

Oh, and then there are all those trade treaties ceding our sovereignty so that we can never enact tariffs.
