Our Country Is Fine But The Government Is Broken

The problem we face is not a lack of good ideas to fix the economy, create jobs, and solve the problems facing our nation. The problem is that the current administration refuses to consider those ideas that would be effective in putting America back on the right track.

As far as the Soros-Obama administration is concerned, America is on the right track. And from their point of view, they are right. Capitalism is being crushed to pave the way for George Soros’ goal of global socialism. He has stated in interviews that the only thing now standing in his way is American capitalism which he intends to destroy if he can.

We can’t have incompetent, out of touch, bureaucrats in Washington with no private business experience dictating how businesses should be run. Some of them don’t even understand where these policies are taking the country, but continue to be loyal comrades to the party. Politicians, for the past two years, have been voting for legislative bills - written by Soros’ organizations - without reading them first or understanding what they mean for the country.

The federal government was neither created to run the country nor to control the economy. It was created to represent the country in areas where the individual states could not. These include areas such as foreign policy; national security and defense; immigration; border security; monetary, copyright, and standards of measure; interstate highways; a postal system; and uniform interstate commerce. Federal government today seems to think its job is to run the country and the economy, the Constitution be damned. Major changes are needed if we’re going to save our country from global socialism and liberal progressive ruin.

Creating Jobs
Jobs cannot be created when there is no market for our products. For the past 20 years we have watched American manufacturing being exported to Mexico and China until we have little domestic manufacturing left. The reason is quite simple - it’s cheaper to manufacture overseas or buy foreign made goods. We have allowed China to undercut our costs with their products made by virtual slaves, while we overpay unions with high wages and outrageous benefits to produce the same products.

If you want successful and profitable manufacturing in the U.S., you can’t do it with union labor without major reforms. In order to compete with China, we need to strike a compromise in pricing. American manufacturing must be made affordable with non-union shops where workers are paid a fair wage, but not the outrageous wages, benefits, and pensions that unions demand. The finished product must be affordable to the average American while providing a profit margin for the company. This can only be accomplished by reducing the labor costs.

To make China competitive, we must insist that any products imported from China be made in factories with working standards and wages comparable to those standards and wages in America. An alternative to that would be imposing a tariff on all Chinese imports to raise the selling price and all imports must be clearly labeled with the country of origin, such as “Made in China.â€
