My #1 like about Trump is his stance on China, and my second like is regarding securing the border. As a walkway dem I try to keep my options open and listen to what others running for election have to offer. Yet not a single Dem will get onboard with continuing to be tough on China or tightening up our border(not a hardline wall supporter, but miles of 4' tall garden fencing and no security is a JOKE). The Chinese kickbacks, and I'll go so far to say the drug cartel kickbacks as well....must be pretty great! Way to go, keep selling out the country Demorats.
The modern Left is all about identity politics. They don’t give a hoot about labor, which is what the old Left represented.
Say what you want about Fox News but the link below is to an article about Chinese threatening to block medications they manufacture. Do we need anymore evidence that it is time to be a little more nationalistic especially when it comes to China? Time for drug companies and many others to bring this back to the US or at least a more friendly country.
What I find interesting, is Fox is the only place I can find this info. I looked on several other more liberal news sights I often check for balance and nothing is mentioned. I guess this does not fit the liberal democrat narrative of globalism and China is our friend? Feel free to post from other sources or prove FN wrong. Maybe they are the ones spreading fear with this one?
Even if we wanted to bring back manufacturing, it would take years to get up and running efficiently. There's a reason we get our pharmaceuticals from China. Besides, Americans won't want to pay the price of goods manufactured here in the states. China and India aren't threatening to block pharmaceuticals. They are doing it.
Manufacturing will never come back to the US. Not when there are whole armies of slave labor overseas, in places with no safety, labor, or environmental regulations. Any American manufacturing will be 100% automated.
Manufacturing, like farming, is dead (as a source of employment for the American masses).
Find a job in the healthcare sector, finance, or your regional Amazon warehouse.
Slave labor - where the worker is not compensated - does not exist. With reference to American prices, their labor is far cheaper - but they aren't paying American taxes.
American manufacturing was destroyed by government taxation, socialist taxation, based on the premise that to provide a "safety net" for unemployed workers, it was necessary to destroy more jobs, by taxing the businesses out of profitability. With logic like that, it's no surprise we suffer from inflation during a currency drought.
I suggest you write a polite letter to any Corporation that relies on foreign manufacturers and ask them if they'd relocate their manufacturing to the USA if ALL TAXES ON LABOR AND INDUSTRY were abolished.
I predict that the day after all taxes are abolished, there will be such an ECONOMIC BOOM that people will marvel of the stupidity of our forefathers who allowed the parasites and slavers of socialism to operate for so long in America.

But according to what our corrupt paid off Congress tells us, it is not safe for us to buy our drugs from Canada, the EU, UK, or Mexico but China is OK.....for them!

You would be asking tens of thousands to give up their fat bonuses that they have been use to by having cheap labor. Wont happen.
