Nah, it doesn’t have to be that stupid. All the GOP has to do in bring back the middle class jobs that they exported. Then a prosperous middle class will be working again, paying taxes and buying things and voting for the GOP again like they did for Reagan and the two Bushs.
The GOP has to get successful the old-fashioned way - they got to earn it. Running under the banner ‘I know how to create jobs’ is woefully inadequate. Just do it.
Right. The GOP needs to dump the Free Trade Communist Globalism nonsense. You cannot create job in the United States of America by shipping American jobs to Communist China. All the cute economic theory cannot over-ride this Economic Fact
Free Trade Communist Globalism does not work.
Unfortnately, Liberals have figured this out...and why you see Obama in this country use Welfare and Socialism to offset Free Trade.
You cannot beat a Socialist like Obama with Free Trade Communism. You need ideas and efforts that actually create jobs other than fast-food jobs
Well, no, not if the Chinese are buying every job they can find with the sweat and blood of their political prisoners. They use them to benchmark wages, then sweat everybody else mercilessly. PBS, ironically, documented the crap that goes on in Chinese garment factories. Some Sikh guy from India walks in with an order in his pocket from Dickies or Benetton, wanting the Chinese factory owner to deliver in two weeks (!), and all of a sudden Chinese girls are working 60-hour weeks at straight pay (well, they say they pay them, if you can find the pennies in the bottoms of the girls' purses after the boss gets through docking the crap out of them for "work rule violations") and trying to bring in traditional Chinese energy drinks and teas to keep their strength up -- and these are 20-y.o. girls.
