We've been losing manufacturing jobs for over 50 years yet the standard of living keeps improving at a unbelievable pace.

This myth that once the last one is gone, we're all dead is so absurd and obscene, you can't even argue with it. There's nothing to support it except, "Argh Argh Argh, you can't run an economy on service, argh argh argh."

We continue to do it.. Our unemployment levels are among the lowest in the world, and our growth is amongst the strongest.

The doom and gloomers have been repeating the same garbage for 40-50 years and they've been wrong for 40-50 years.

It's just unbelievable that anybody would take their position.

For someone who has been on FR for all of 6 days, you sure sound like a troll.

Actually, things are going so well that the nations largest banks went hat in hand to the Republican Party and begged them to change the bankruptcy laws.
So just what do they see on the horizon?
