MY tribe consists of intelligent, educated people who rely on their merits to improve themselves and who do not view collectivism as a benefit of any kind.

My tribe consists of America. Being loyal to a tribe is not collectivism, it's natural human behavior selected for on the battlefield. If American engineers and auto workers are relatively expensive, use technology to leverage their productivity. Importing cheap guest workers is a short-term cheat and long-term mistake. Automation and American quality of life won't progress if we keep importing cheap workers. You don't win by importing cheaper teammates, you win by supporting the team you're on.

The Obama administration is proof positive that I am not a member of whatever "team" they represent.

I happen to be FOR the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, as amended. As far as I can tell, the UAW and other collectives would use our Constitution as toilet paper.

If there is an Indian or Chinese engineer anywhere on earth who believes in the principles of liberty and individual responsibility, then THEY are my team mates.

As Limbaugh, I believe, said, I hope the Obama administration fails if their mission is to substitute socialism for freedom. So, whose team are you on?
