I've said it before and I'll say it again, we need a revolution. The reason that this country is in the crapper is that the good manufacturing jobs have been sent overseas. Without those jobs, the domestic manufacturers have no customers. Making anything with cheap labor is pointless if in the process you kill off your customers. The elimanation of tariffs to protect domestic jobs was just grease on an already slippery slope.
Now we're forced to buy stock in a company that's stuck to the bottom. And they call it success.....

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
