Dude, we buy from them, and erecting more economic barriers would make consumer goods more expensive, (most likely) including that laptop and/or phone you are currently using to post.

How long before they are on top of that too?
We need to relearn how to be self-sufficient,we have forgotten.Most of our citizens have forgotten even how to take care of themselves.It's sad.
What you're saying is right but the problem is that there is no path to that. Our standard and cost of living is too high in this country (compared to China). We have to pay our workers too much. It is 100% impossible for us to have jobs here creating goods and sell them at a competitive cost anywhere else. Sure, we can control the taxes on items coming into the US Itself but for the rest of the world countries will choose to buy the cheaper option being produced outside of the US.

Very true; given the current World mindset. L
If it happens in an economic 'collapse' scenario, likely about 3 1/2 years of honeymoon spin...then followed by 3 1/2 of reactionary muscle/implosion.

If that's what you think has pushed manufacturing jobs out of the U.S., I feel sorry for you.

Dude,don't you think that is the point?
We don't make anything here anymore,so the American worker is not in huge demand,so wages stay stagnant.
The expense of consumer goods is always relative to the amount of money that people have to spend.
When the American worker is in high demand,the rule of supply and demand comes into play,and drives wages higher. We need to produce and buy our own products.
That's what other countries do.

That's fine as your opinion and you may even be right, but your folks should just run on that: massive globalization, surrender of U.S. autonomy to the U.N. and other global organizations, curtailment of rights, the whole 9 yards.
Then go through the process of amending the constitution to make it happen.
Doing it subversively (which has apparently been the plan since 1945 or before) and just hollowing out the country to advance this agenda, despite the will of the citizenry - just seems to be the most anti-democratic way to accomplish this.

That is why all imported goods need a tariff,ALL of them. That is what other countries do.
We all need to be buying any U.S. made items when we can,even if it costs a bit more.
When we stopped doing this,that is when our economy went south.

Globalization entails a whole hell of a lot more than trade.

What you mean is that the United States shouldn't work to protect its workers against people who are literaly paid slave wages.

Price depends (to a certain extent) on demand, but cost of production is independent of demand. Subtle but important difference.

If I oppose open borders I also oppose free trade?
If I oppose condensed power I oppose free trade?
If I oppose nonsense like a global warming tax I oppose free trade?
Is that what you guys are going with this morning?

and Chairman Mao said he would sell the rope to the U S with which we would be hung by
politicians like President Obama and Hillary Clinton, and Democratic, Liberal voters and their sheep, who not only will let our country be invaded by other countries, but want this to happen, need to pull their heads out of their asses
free markets are one thing, surrendering our way of life to lower our standards to the global mean will be the end of our country, our democracy

Your post may be the most ignorant post we will ever read today. Globalization is fine as long as it is played on a level playing field.
