"you have millions losing their jobs, and no equivalent jobs for those people to step in to"

I bet you can't substantiate that claim.

"Seems to me the Us [sic] is "benefitting" by an ever increasing trade deficict [sic]. Is this another one of those pesky little details that will be worked out...in the long run?"

Weren't you mocking Jewel just yesterday for his sloppy writing? A tad hypocritical, wouldn't you say?

BTW, yes, the US IS benefitting from its trade deficit. Your "exports are good - imports are bad" thinking went out with mercantilism.

"How do we keep jobs in this country for low skilled workers?...but when all the burger chef positions are filled, then what?"

Here's a thought, raise the education standards. Oh wait, you're a teacher, so you know more about that than me... never mind. You are probably right, we are doomed.

How do we keep jobs in this country for low skilled workers? Make them paid posters on SI to work as mouthpieces for the government? I understand propaganda is a growth industry.

burger chef positions

I believe the term you are looking for is Meat Patty Assembly Engineer in a Rapid Hunger Dispersal Facility.
