    Some of us can see it, but like the rest of us there is not much i can do about it!

    Its kinda funny to me , that 15 years ago, when i was a full fledge white power skinhead, all the propaganda i used to preach about the goverment, and immigration, is now coming true! All the common folks who snubbed me off as a stupid nazi bigot (which i was) are now getting what they deserve!

    It really sucks for the honest hard working proud americans that bled and died for this once superb nation to watch it die like this, but in my small amount of knowledge, i see no way it could have been different. Look at all the small civil wars we have had thru the years, the honest man fought tooth and nail to keep the american standards up, but in the end greed wins!

    As gasser said, grab your guns and mre`s, were gonna need em fella`s!

    This really hits the nail on the head! We used to be the manufacturer to the world....but nothing ever stays the same. Now the third world countries are providing much of the manufacturing, and that is the way it is going to be for our lifetime. The problem is that they don't have the standard of living that we have come to expect....they don't have unions....minimum wage laws...and so on. That is why labor is so cheap there, and guess what? We have to compete with that.

    If you want to make a fairly good living here, you will have to work in a field that cannot be imported. Healthcare....services....one-of-a-kind, and custom products....and so on.

    Also remember that much of what we have come to expect is not really necessary. How many cars to you really need to own? (I'm not talking about hot rod "toys") How new do they need to be? How many TVs?....telephones?....vacations?....luxuries?....Do you really need a pool?.....the latest barbeque grill?

    I wonder how many asians or Mexicans even have single family homes, computers, or even one car?
    We have come to expect these things, but are competing with people who just want to eat regularly!

    I'm afraid we are in an "adjustment period" that will last a long time.
