All I am saying is, we need to pay attention to our country’s economic future.

Nobody is saying anything about that. We have been selling out America now for over one entire generation.

It gets worse, and worse, and worse.

That is to me, becoming the critical issue.

Not one single solitary ounce of sophistication or wisdom came out of his mouth when I saw him speak at the Iowa Ag Summit.

How is that the president’s job? Or are you for big government telling businesses what to do and what to make?

To an extent yes, it is the president’s job.

Our president is representing all Americans.

All Americans benefit, if Americans are supporting American businesses.

Not Chinese factories, but American factories.

I think we just found a subject we don’t agree on.

But it’s a big one. :D

All I am saying is, America first.

Like I said.

We clearly don’t agree on this issue. Big time.

No, I’m all for bringing manufacturing and other businesses back to the United States. However, I don’t see the government’s role in changing that, except at the margins. This isn’t Soviet Russia.

Like I said.

We are clearly not on the same page, on the subject of American manufacturing.

That said, I am in a (big) minority on this subject. So I would be more surprized if we agreed on this subject.

But this subject is becoming more important. In my opinion, we need to strongly work at bringing back American industry.

This is just my opinion, however.

I don’t remember voting on off shoring and lowering tariffs to destructive levels. So would you be in favor of replacing income taxes with tariffs, sales and user fees?

You voted for representatives who then voted for those things. We live in a Republic, not a Democracy.

BOTH Parties are in bed with corporations to shut out the American worker. Marx would approve of this. This UniParty Govt - Corporation partnership is crime is fascism. So which are you supporting fascism or Marxism?

I sort of agree with you on this.

Both parties have sold out American workers.

Both parties.

And they have sold out American workers, to China. A massive communist country, which doesn’t even have elections, or allow Americans to immigrate.

That is a complete sell-out, in my opinion.

Nice personal attack.

It’s a nasty thing off shoring. It is destroying the economy and ruining lives. So that wasn’t a personal attack it was just a question. We are in a war and a lot of out fellow Americans are making a buck off of the misery of others. That is not hyperbole it is truth.

Some idiots here on FR have already proved with their vote for liberal Romney that they will vote for any old (R) that the media or the GOP-E chooses to be the primary winner.

They want GOP or nothing. They don't actually care what his positions are. As long as their team 'wins'

I figure that leaves it up to me and folks like me to make sure to send Cruz money and make sure he is the primary winner.

Conservatives are pissed off this election.

What are the real numbers of LEGAL immigrants out there?

We know that illegal immigration is out of control. I would like to see the numbers you are complaining about for legal immigration.

I heard in one of Cruz’s speeches where he addressed the regulation issue that was sending businesses overseas. He is anti regulation, bigtime and has experience in that area. He was saying that deregulating and lowering corporate tax rates would bring back the two trillion dollars of investment money that is currently banked overseas, create businesses and begin to restore manufacturing here.

Like you, I think we need to hear more of this.

I’m a 100% VA-rated housebound/permanently & totally disabled veteran. That’s the “buck” I’m making. And my wife sells eyeglasses in a department store. You ought to see our palatial mansion.
