Aww... and I am sure you made a profoundly brilliant point! Since this is the SECOND thread started today about the GOP message, I can only assume the Democrat strategy in the closing weeks of this election cycle, is to attack the GOP message as being empty or devoid of solutions. That will be interesting to see how well it works for you... do people want to keep doing the same failed policies or make a change? I happen to think, smaller limited government, and stopping out of control spending, is going to be more popular than repeating the same idiocy that isn't working. ....But, that's just me. With 10% unemployment and 20% underemployment, I think the GOP pro-business message is going to be wildly more appealing to the voters than the Marxist Socialist message of nitwits like Nancy Pelosi, who thinks unemployment and food stamps give us our "biggest bang for the buck" in this economy. Again... not Kreskin here, we'll have to wait and see what the voters think in a few weeks.
Im not a democrat dixie. Your globalist propaganda turns people into democrats faster than anything else. And even though they're globalist too, they're at least smart enough to pander to working class americans.
Your usual tax cuts for the rich and anti-worker sentiment is a sure loser.
Nobody believes the "rising tide raises all ships" rhetoric anymore.
Put on a new tune, or be politically destroyed.
You may as well be a Democrat.
No because they are not really offering anything but government programs which will eventually go bankrupt. We need market solutions. We need protectionism to keep our domestic capacities intact, and our citizens employed.
All market are manipulated and sculpted to achieve certain social engineering goals. Globalization is just a sculpting of markets intended to destroy americans and other first world citizens.
Our government has the power to sculpt trade policy, and it's not socialism eithers.
Protectionism is what the unions were organized to do. Do you think giving more power to unions is the answer? If so, you may as well be a Democrat!
Market solutions require you to allow the free market and capitalism to work. If you want to ensure our people have jobs, you have to ensure free market capitalism can work, and that includes being able to utilize outsourcing when it makes sense. Establishing trade policies which hinder capitalism, is not the answer, as much as your Democrat ass thinks it is.
Protectionism has to do with international trade.
We can have protectionism without unions.
Your version of capitalism is just anti-american globlist rhetoric, which destroys the american middle class. Capitalism requires a larger framework of other concerns for context, some security related, some related to longer term thinking, some related to morality. Your globalist treachery fails the requirements of all three other frameworks of concern.
My version of capitalism is called "free market" capitalism, and it's about the only way capitalism can work to bring about prosperity for all. You want to allow Democrat Socialists to meddle in the affairs of capitalism, to "even the playing field" and take from the rich to give to the poor, so that we have a middle class... it doesn't work, it hasn't worked in the last century we've tried it. What does work, is free market capitalism.
You are completely misguided on this whole campaign against "globalism" ...we compete on the world stage, with all the other major players. You want to take your ball and go home? Fine, they will still play the game without us... Chinese people will still be enslaved to their government and work for pennies a day... Ethiopians will still have emaciated pot bellies... Homeless people will still be without homes... nothing will change, except that, we will no longer be a part of the game.
We won't buy their stuff, which means we will either do without it altogether, or we will pay considerably more for the union produced stuff. They won't buy our stuff because we aren't buying their stuff, so we will lose trade there as well, which means more Americans will lose their jobs and be able to afford less stuff. For every action, there is a reaction, and that seems to be a concept that escapes you.
