that was a joke, which is obvious
"almost everything we import comes from abroad"
just testing you guys
but the converse is not true
"most of what we export contains imported components"

the USA has become an assembler of mfr'ed parts, a service expertise nation, and administrative center
but we also produce a great deal of arrogance and hike-priced overhead crappola

glad somebody caught my jerky comment
in the next year, my imported part argument will be a major story that solves a mystery, and confounds many hack economists
and believe me, hacks are LEGION out there
(this is my field -- statistical analysis, forecasting, marketing research, economic analysis)
there are some painful consequences to discharging mfg responsibility to Asia
we will see them seriously hurt our nation next year

and furthermore, the low-tech assembly duties are increasingly sent to our NAFTA 51st state in Mexico
Mexico must be included in any/all analyses that relates employment to inflation
and now relates excess labor pool to continued deflation
from 1995 to 2000 the Mexico factor inclusion was heretically ignored
"non-inflation producing rate of growth" ???
factor in Mexico, hack economists
