[QUOTE="TedKennedy, post: 2743330, member: 25419"] No, it didn't. I do believe Mr.Henry's statements are, in fact, true. Manufacturing and higher wages during the 50s and 60s, trade agreements that favored the United States, these things created the best living standard the world has [B]ever[/B] seen. Neocons refuse to admit that global competition for wages, and offshore manufacturing by U.S. companies is driving our economy down. If you look at the economy from a global perspective, what we're doing is great. If you're a nationalist, what we're doing is suicide. We've gone from leading exporter to leading importer, and are devolving into a "service" industry country. We tax ourselves at an ever increasing rate, spend the money on those who don't produce anything, and fight wars for "freedom". (Israel's freedom, mostly) It'll take someone running this country who cares about the working-class guy, the stands for American Excellence - more than he cares about lining his pockets and currying favor with corporations and foreign governments. I doubt we have many citizens willing to embrace that change. Too many mouths, not enough tits. [/QUOTE]
