India China, and Korea sure as hell won't let 'em in to take advantage of the new jobs there.

It may interest you to know, that as a US citizen, I am planning an investigative trip to South Asia and Asia/Pacific.

Yeah, sure. So what we need to do is 1) quit buying stuff made overseas even though it's cheaper, and 2) use that money to subsidize American jobs, even though they aren't competitive.

So, let's see. No more shopping for clothes at Walmart, gotta pass that money on to the American textile workers. No more driving foreign cars, gotta pass that money on to the American factory workers. No more importing cheaper prescription drugs from Canada, got to pass that money on to the American pharmaceutical workers. No more tennis shoes made by Nike, et al., those are made in Viet Nam.

I am sure that you only buy American-made goods with the Union label, right?
