we need to keep money in the country.. keep it circulating within us soil. no more outsourcing jobs, limit the help we provide to other countries, stop hiring outsiders, stop buying products manufactured ouside, stop hiring asian telemarketer. if i call a helpline, i expect to speak with a person based inamerica. i hate calling 800-numbers only to realize that the person talking to me is someone who has never been in american soil. the rest of the world used to want to be like us, now they are laughing at us. what happened to the land of opportunity?? see all those years and money wasted away fighting unnessecary wars..etc..this is so sad.

I am afraid that we find ourselves competing in the global economy where capital finds cheaper labor outside of United States. This is one reason of loss of manufacturing. Capital also finds better return in asia which creates more jobs also outside United States.
The other problem is those rich have more capital and keep increasing capital. And those without capital that depend on jobs to get capital are at a disavantage. And it shows up as the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Hard at this point to change that without changing economic laws that are created by the courts and government. We are capitalists which have there winners and losers. In the labor market jobs that compete with foriegn labor are the losers.
There is no recover from jobs that are lost to foriegn competition. Since labor is a deducted expense this capital remains lost to United States. So this is reduction of capital versus increase in profits but they don't equal out. Example of this problem showed in with the British empire and that empire is gone. And the american empire in time will also be history as capital is reduced. You can already see this in the balance or trade. Debt is a problem not likely to go away.
Bias comes from not making use of herbal medicine which has reduced cost versus conventional drugs. This only creates cost problems. Our health care is the most expensive in the world but yet it is not nearly the best. Somehow we learn little from our experience with slavery thinking this was cheap labor when in fact it was expenive. We still look for cheap labor yet it is likely to turn out expensive. We have learned little from history but continue with age old bias. And again we are wrong. And the cost will be great. We forget there is profit in our people if we invest in them. But seem like we are doing the opposite and this is our bias.

When voting think!
We are not responsible for repaying those who Stole funds from various countries.
Think Citi, BofA, Wells, Chase, Morgan & Goldman were at the forefront when these stupid Foreign Countries wanted to Invest in Paper that was guaranteed by the Major Banks of the World.
Now countries like Iceland, Ireland Greece Spain & many others are telling their populace that they have to tighten their belts as the CEO's of these banks require bonuses or they will jump ship and the businesses cannot do without them.
Awake America nos - leave these banks and deposit your meager funds in the local institutions.

We can not sustain the next four years on this road of destruction.
Wake up, vote to get us out of this mess. That means NO to four more years of this crazy distribution of our hard earned money. We are giving to all other countries and taking our own citizens money away! This needs to stop. We are so in debt, Someone tell me WHY we are using our expensive drones over in Libya when we need to save these expensive pieces of equipment for our own protection? This needs to stop and I could go on and on. Young Americans, don't vote for him just because he looks good. Vote to get us out of this mess.
