All of the stimulus money the Fed can print won’t overcome the fact that our economic base is gone and it ain’t coming back.

America became the greatest country the world has ever seen because of our manufacturing ability. Let’s face it, after WWII, we had the only standing factories in the world because all the rest of them got bombed to hell. We had the resources and the knowledge to “own the world”.

Now, all of the politicians talk about creating jobs. Really? How do they think we are going to compete with virtual slave labor and no environmental restrictions? Every trade deal we have signed simply makes it easy for other countries to sell their stuff here, but we can’t sell shit to them because our union workers make more in a hour than their slaves make in a week.

Wal-Mart sells nearly a billion dollars worth of goods a DAY. 93% of it is made in China. We have an American company who is nothing more than a retail outlet for China. Thanks to the real hidden tax, (inflation) we can hardly afford to buy China’s shoddy things, much less true American quality, if we even make that item anymore. Try buying ball caps for your little league team that are made here. Good luck!

What America is about to learn is that we are following in the footsteps of the many fallen “empires” that litter history.

I’m going to predict that by November 2012, there is going to be blood in the streets and probably Marshall law. That’s going to make an election impossible. The fascists have already won. It’s just a short amount of time now before the general populace realizes it and revolts. Thanks to the so called “Patriot Act”, the powers that be can do ANYTHING they damn well please to us and it is legal. The average American citizen doesn’t have a clue about how all of our rights guaranteed by the Constitution have been stolen without a shot.

Too bad we didn’t have enough sense to elect Ron Paul the first or second time he ran, we might of had a chance to save this Country then. Even now, the voters are too stupid to realize that everything he has said for 30 years has been dead on the money.

My dad told me way back in the 60’s when Barry Goldwater was defeated by a landslide that the American people didn’t have enough sense to elect an honest Government. It’s pretty obvious he was right.

No. I’m quite intelligent.

Again, I’m a Ron Paul supporter. And I see the bias (you could call it way worse) in the majority of mainstream media about Ron Paul.

My other comment also wasn’t an attack aimed at the article writer, Torrance. But this article, which is important, could have been more professional.

Can you image President Paul immediately after the inauguration, informing every worker in the country, they would have an extra $100 to spend in their paycheck come Friday? Every Friday? There will be the most incredible economic boom. BOOM!

It seems you may have a reading comprehension problem.

Excellent article, Torrance!

I read your last article about Ron Paul, which was much more professional than this. Please revise this article? It doesn’t accurately convey what you’re trying to say. It almost reads to cause confusion.

I thought of a thing that would require any American who did business overseas would have to still be forced to follow our laws. In that they would be forced to pay the same rates, & have the workers gain the same protections. I thought this would force us to only hire a work force outside the US for better reasons than to use others poor circumstances.
