Again, you use a false pretense.
These weren't "sweatshop" jobs. They were good middle class jobs that could support a family on 1 income.
We have a shit ton of crappy jobs available because people don't want to serve food with no future prospects.
Yes, and when his fellow democrat was president.
In 2000, then-Sen. Joe Biden joined with 82 other senatorsand the Clinton administration in normalizing trade relations with China. It was a crucial step in allowing China to join the World Trade Organization. Labor unions like the Teamsters and...
That is demonstrably false. How many cities in America were devastated when factories closed their doors and moved overseas. Mine was one of them. We had various industries here, now they're all gone (and they were by the 90's)

That's the whole point of my post. Joe Biden, a prominent democrat is one of the biggest players responsible for the situation we're in today. To turn around and say "Democrats handled the economy better" while our country is in free...
Do you really believe that would make a significant difference???
It's far too late unfortunately. China is our drug dealer. Until we can break our addiction to insanely cheaply made shit, we are done for. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. I don't think people realize that even on the...
