When the millions of jobs moved to China and more than 40,000 factories closed from 2001 to 2008, Republicans blamed it on Democrats even when they held the entire government for years.
I doubt if you really want to have a discussion, more likely you just want to have your little rant. But I'll try anyway.
Do you think President Bush "ordered" that "jobs move" to China? Jobs don't actually "move", what happens another country starts making products that Americans make, but they make them cheaper. They ship them over, and people go to walmart and buy the products that are made in other countries because they are cheaper than the ones made in the USA. Then, since the American companies aren't selling products made in America, they stop making those products.
How are other countries able to make products cheaper than we can make them here?
Here are some reasons:
1) Unemployment insurance. Because people are drawing unemployment benefits, they aren't looking for a job. They aren't desperate, and they will not take a low paying job. The workers in other countries are desperate, and will work cheap, because working cheap is better than not working at all.
2) OSHA regulations, EPA regulations. OSHA and EPA regulations cost American companies money, so they have to charge more for their products. Foreign companies don't have OSHA regulations.
3) Unions. Unions force American companies to pay higher wages, which cost American companies money.
I could go on and on. Now that we're being ruled by Hussein Obama, we'll have even more socialism, we'll become less competitive.
I'm sure the OP is aware of this. The OP is being disingenuous. In the early 1960's JFK launched the space program. That is the only initiative from the demonrats in the last 100 years that I'm aware of that has benefited the USA.
One of the most flagrant abuses was when George Bush said "read my lips, no new taxes". The budget was held up in congress, and the government was about to shut down. The demonrats offered to pass a budget if President Bush would agree to a small tax increase. For the good of the country, President Bush agreed. Then, all we heard from the demonrats was how Bush lied because he agreed WITH THEM to a small tax increase.
That's why I call them demonrats. They are anti-american. They hate America, they don't believe in American greatness, The country would be far better off without them.
But, I agree, it's too late to save America. We have a "president" who wasn't born here, who is a muslim, a racist, and who hates America. I'm just glad I'm old and won't see the fall of this once great country.
