maybe you are right, in that we americans will have to accept a lower standard of living, like it or not, as corporations move manufacturing and other well-paying lower-middle-class jobs to the cheap-as-slaves labor of the third world.
just like we have to accept income inequality from now on.
this is the new american dream - to be allowed to work at walmart or mcdonalds, because you aren't allowed to get a cushy government job with real benefits.
and we only need a tiny class to run wall street and the american offices of multinationals.

this is not a rant, my dad was in manufacturing lost his job many times. this is not a cuss to america. i want you guys to recover but you refuse to stand up and do anything about it.
you guys have 25 news stations on cable in some places. constantly bombarding the public with spinning info. blinding the population from what is really going on. but instead of everyone turning off your tv set and going to work or do something about it you choose not too.
yes i do think that you do have to lower your standard of living.
lets get real the avg american thinks they are "too good" to work at mcdonalds NO MATTER WHAT THE CIRCUMSTANCES. majority of people would rather collect a govt check.
and lets get real about the "immigration problem". the problem is americans do not want these types of jobs. and it is immigrants who filled it.
how are you going to have a fruit farm and hire americans? everyone is extremely overweight.
how is a nation supposed to re build itself when they are too fat to do manual labor for more than 5 minutes at a time? this is not a joke. tell me how please if you have an answer.
