Exporting Jobs

The US Government has for too many years made decisions in the form of laws passed by Congress that have severely hurt our workers, consumers, and citizens. Our highly educated people in leadership positions, believing they are wise, have made very foolish decisions. With the “idea” that a world economy would solve all the world’s problems, laws and trade deals were implemented that determined which jobs were good and which jobs were not good for Americans. Congress passed financial accounting laws that made it a good deal for American companies to manufacture certain products in other countries like Japan to help rebuild their economy and employ many workers there. Within a few years, none of those products could be manufactured in the USA and compete at a lower price at that time.

The brilliant idea was used to allow China and then India, and over time every other country including Vietnam to sell more and more products in America. This was done intentionally as a way of helping all those economies with the idea that all those countries would be our friends and allies. With every one of those actions by Congress, more and more jobs in America went away and workers here had to find other work. We also saw with the “COVID” panic lockdown, many products were not available here in America. We are told that products made in America will cost much more than from China or India; however, people in America still have to live and if they cannot find jobs, the taxpayers will pay higher taxes to support those not working.

No other country has a clean environment like America for manufacturing products. If a product is made in China, there are no EPA controls or restrictions on child labor. The shipping costs and the graft involved with money coming back to people in Congress do not keep product prices low. That is just an indoctrination that we have accepted. There are almost no medications that are made in America today including things like gloves and gowns. There are no automobiles that are totally manufactured in America today, not one. Most of our food either comes from another country or the company located in America is owned by another country.

We elect way too many politicians who believe they are smarter than you, but they do very foolish things because they are not honest people. Their greed drives their decisions, and they pass or do not pass laws based on how the laws will directly affect their bank accounts. They will never voluntarily pass laws that restrict those actions until we drain the swamp in Congress and the Federal Agencies. If there was a federal law that required each elected person and all agency leaders to report their total wealth each year, we could see what they were worth when they went to Washington and how many millions they had after their government salary.

When President Trump talks about bringing back manufacturing to America, that is part of the bigger plan to Make America Great Again. It is to restore our country to be self-sufficient and strong with a strong economy. More people with good jobs, less crime, and safe neighborhoods. The other choice is to continue to follow the Roman Empire and hope for a different outcome.
