Well, hells bells, a suggestion more sensible than, "American workers will just have to stop whining and work harder for less than those folks in Calcutta.", that I am so sick of hearing.

I want the whole country to prosper. I dam near buy all American goods if at all posable. We all should and that would be a good start that we can do without government. Yep it cost a bit more but I know I am helping put food on a American table.
Just think if we all did it and how much power we have as a consumer.

Whaddya know. We can agree on some things. We used to protect our most precious resource, our citizens and now we protect corporations and banks.

Really you act like god all mighty but no input now, well at least nothing relevant.
Last night you said I was wrong as well as 90% of the news sources. Well prove it, and that doesn't mean repetitively repeating your self and wishing it's true as being facts.

Piss on ya, ya egomaniac.  Are you always given to hyperbole?

Hay you made a comment before. Are you a Mechanic?
When I was filling tool draws in 2008 in fear that I just might need to hustle in another trade or handyman. Old time US tools that are made in China now are not in my box.
That stimulus and the store sales back then I was buying like crazy. I felt I need to do my part to help stimulate sales/economy.

I suspect you never will.
Just keep on being proud to bust ass for chump change.
That's what "Real Americans" do. And their employers love it.
(But, not them. Nobody really respects a dupe.)

You have no idea of what my situation is or of what I want in life.

Yes Erik but as I noted earlier I believe the CBO met in either Colorado or Washington State because they must have had access to some real good weed.
