Advocating for America manufacturing is likewise conservative.

Except my idea, strengthens America.

Yours weakens her.

Think about that for just a moment. America was how strong relative to the world, at this time 20 years ago?

(I’ll answer that without hesitation, we were the unquestioned Superpower in the globe.)

How about 10 years ago.

How about now?

Seriously. How can there be any question, we have become much, much weaker. All because of globalization.

Wake up America. We need American jobs.

That's illogical.

Lowering business taxes and regulation in this country will not only attract American manufacturers back to our shores, it will also attract foreign investment here.

The net result of policies which produce that scenario will strengthen this country, and create more jobs.

Imposing punitive tariffs and penalties on companies that produce goods imported into this country won't attract more business here, or cause American manufacturers to bring their operations home. Frankly, I think a lot of companies would simply decide to forgo the American market altogether, under that harshened climate.

The free market is going to go where costs are minimized, and profits are maximized. If you can figure out how to structure your nation's tax laws and regulations around that axiom, you're going to see an increase in businesses operating in your country.

It's as simple as that.
