America will not tolerate the socialist managed economy you desire

America needs to make stuff.

We need to bring back our own industry.

Our industry is sold-out. Completely.

no, you’re the blah blah blah - never any ability to talk about but one issue, and not the understanding of that issue to do so beyond shallow meaningless platitudes.

Supply and demand and liberty are a bitch, when you try and superimpose your micro understanding and your macro emotions on to it.

I disagree.

America needs to become great again.

We will do that, by making stuff HERE.

Countries don’t “make stuff” - people do - people who make up companies. Countries can sour their environment though with too much litigation and too much regulation and too much taxation however - which prevents people and companies from making stuff.

You want stuff made here? EXPORT our liberalism and watch it happen like wildfire, organically. You wanna keep wasting time and making yourself miserable? Then stay obsessed with China. We don’t make law in China. We make laws here, and those are the laws that are killing us.

But you have no idea why more stuff isn’t made here. You keep going back over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over the same meaningless platitudes and incorrect prescriptions. Zzzzzz

America rocks.

That said, we have sold off (far) too much American production.

It is time for America to bring back our very own industry.

Gee, more meaningless platitudes. Seriously dude, you have a real problem intellectually. No one no one no one doesn’t want more manufacturing jobs here, but most Freepers know what that will take.

You’re the loudest siren with the least understanding.

We need to see some action from the Rs NOW.

America voted for our side last Tuesday to PUT OUT THE FIRE, and so far they haven’t even heard the sirens of the firetrucks coming.

We are going to LOSE the electorate that sided with us in ‘16 if don’t actually DO something NOW.

I was about to say the same to you.

At least my view in a minority.

You’re in the clear majority on this site, yet you just complain.

America needs to reverse our decades long fall from greatness.

Now would be an ideal time, for the GOP to lead.

We (badly) have fallen. Luckily we fell from a very high place, so we have a long way to fall.

But we are falling. Make no doubt about that.

America needs to change direction, and re-industrialize.

How we do that is open to debate, but selling off America’s productive capacity is clearly just damaging America.

It is time to change.

you’re just too stupid to converse with. I’ve laid out in extremely coherent and correct terms many times what it will take - not complaining at all - just a clear and concise macro economic reality that I have realized through 30 years of being an entrepreneur and 20 years of writing about economics - including some ghost writing for the number one conservative show in the world.

You are the one that just complains. And you have an incredible ability not to learn shit.

I am opposed to our nation’s de-industrialization.

That means I am in opposition to this.

It is very simple. In this case, I support American jobs.

Jobs.

And further, I support American production. Now granted everyone (even here on the number one conservative website anywhere) seems to be sold out to China.

I am not. Further I believe we have reached a point, where we need to bring American industry back to America.

You clearly are on the opposite side. While I respect we are on polar opposites on this issue, I will continue to advocate that the GOP get off the sideline and start to support a return of American manufacturing.

We have made China strong enough. China now has the world’s second-largest military budget, and that is (rapidly) growing.

It is time to bring our industry back.

This is just my opinion, but I hold it strongly.

So I am talking about it.

Retard. Seriously, I’ll bet you that you can not score more than 85 on an IQ test and not better than 50 on an economics exam.

Guaran - damm - tee BOTH.

Since 1988 conservatives managed to eek out the 1995 welfare reform which has been rolled back under der fuehrer, BushII tax cuts which McConnell caved on in the upper brackets, and Alito and Thomas, otherwise we have played defense and lost time and time again. With all three branches of government under Republican control in the BushII era there was no excuse for playing defense and you never when on defense alone ever.

I believe we are the blacks of the Republican Party, on the plantation at this point: lots of BS promises and little to nothing to show for our support or efforts.

In addition to being a lifelong Republican, I am also a lifelong Catholic. As such, I often find myself in the position of having to defend both institutions. Neither one of them of is perfect of course, but IMHO they are both solid institutions that have the right values and have withstood the test of time. I feel no obligation to defend every single Republican politician or every single Catholic clergyman. Although the GWB Administration was far from perfect, it was certainly far better than the administration which preceded it and the one which succeeded it. I have voted the straight GOP ticket my entire life and never had a single regret. Not that every Republican I have ever voted for was perfect, often far from it, but they were ALWAYS better than the Democrat alternatives.

Nothing in life is perfect, least of all politics. We have to work with what he have. I fully realize that Washington Republicans have often disappointed us. But I do think Republican governors and state legislatures are doing a very good job in the various states controlling spending, cutting taxes, reducing regulations, reining in public service employee unions.

And yes, I am proud to be both a Republican and a Catholic even though I know both institutions are from perfect. Nothing in this life is perfect.
