Except for the fact that I run from females dealing with feelings, your comment is accurate.
Laughing at your anecdotes makes me gullible? If you say so. LOL!
I don't. My wife does wonders with my feelings and I got no problem with it...
I’ve never thought of it that way . . . why should I bother with dealing with my feelings when I can find a woman to do so?
You got that one right.
I deal with reason and reality because I know that's all I can handle. Any time feelings get involved I can tell I'm way out of my league.
Let's face it, women are much more complicated than we are and they can do things that we can't even imagine..
>Free trade forces Americans to get off their butts and be creative. Being dependent upon a corporation for a job is only slightly better than being dependent on the govt for a handout.<
REALLY! Americans were NEVER known to be ANYTHING BUT creative, self starting, and fabulous entrepreneurs in my generation, and up to it. Through that indomitable ambition America was bustling, building, beautiful, and blessed.
Corporations provided jobs. Jobs are not a handout in any body’s book. That is, corporations became successful because of Americans, and they provided jobs for Americans before they went multinational, moving abroad and taking the jobs with them. Our tax system is blamed for this, and it is partially to blame. But greed and globalization is also a large part of the exodus. Globalization is death to America’s sovereignty.
Sometime after the 50’s creeping Socialism became the poison of choice of the people. Children were being dumbed down in public schools. “Entertainment” brought down good family values and morals in general in every livingroom in the country via a television set.
America was strong because of her industrialization. Her farms supplied healthy food for the nation. Opportunity to succeed was there for anyone who wanted to work for it.
If that spirit is not stirred to back life in this country soon, what will she become?
Here’s some Sunday reading for you. Be sure to finish it all.
Gosh thanks. Never heard that before. /s
You didn’t read it. Well, I tried. Please return to your regularly-scheduled demagoguery.
Here’s what happens when you drive-by me.

I think Hunter partially explains it. Tax inequalities, too high corporate taxes, and currency issues.
Then it’s a matter of savings or more particular our lack of efficient savings (ie entitlements).
You do see, below the graph and in text, where the data came from, don't you? Still want to claim that this GDP data is not adjusted for inflation?
A) What is the average wage in 1929 in 1929 dollars?
B) You ignore the logarithmic improvements science has brought to industry. Traitor economists don’t improve the GDP, business and technological advancements do.
C) You start in 1929 to manipulate the statistics like a Global Warmist. This is exactly what the Communist Global Warmists do to their graphs. They cherry pick the coldest year and start the graph from the coldest year to make the slope look bigger. How about you get a graph that goes back to 1790. OH THATS RIGHT! YOU don’t have the graph that goes back to 1790.
D) Free-traders are liars.
To ask that question in one thread is bad enough. To ask it twice is an invitation to be name-called. You do realize that you bumped this thread again, increasing the chances that your foolish question will be seen by even more FReepers.

My FRiend, it is you who keeps ignoring innovative improvements. You, as you should recall, keep telling us just how much worse things are now than they ever have been. That argument -- that things are getting worse -- is bankrupt of reality. The fact that you wrote what you did here shows just how conflicted you are at your core.

Fine, pick any starting point you want. As long as you give me ten years and an ending date with recent data. Go for it.
D) Free-traders are liars.
Ohh, now that was convincing. It was so profound a statement that I am sure someone's views will be changed by it.

Its the exact same graph used in the other thread. What is the average wage in 1929 in 1929 dollars?

Going outside the country for cheap Communist labor is not an innovation, its devolution towards slavery.

Fine you got me, I’m too lazy to do the plotting and research myself. I’ve been looking everywhere for one, believe you me.
You pick a starting year.
You don’t have any original research yourself, I haven’t seen a graph made by you, you look outside, you cherry pick graphs just like those who made the graphs cherry pick data.
Everyone’s got an agenda, you pretend you don’t have an agenda. Hardy har.
