Long term that is plain wrong. Look at the figures by the year ... The best thing I ever did was to globalize my income. In my last career, as a contractor locally, I would be dead ass broke by now or living hand to mouth ...
Right now the oil price collapse is affecting a lot more than just the price of fuel. That distorts the picture. As much as I despise Hillary, she has come out for subsidized solar power but the subsidy would be available for foreign made solar panels with USA (vocationally trained) workers installing them. That is basic technological training like I have said above -- the twist is this will support the Chinese economy and forebear the great fear (mostly drama spin) of the cashing in of the USA debt to the Bank of China (and other Chinese debt holders).
This isn't kumbaya or behappy thinking -- this is the new globalist strategy in today's world economy that is needed.
