How Will America Truly Recover From the Economic Collapse?

Sue, Great Article… I think the only thing I have to add is this: My guess is that, because we have borrowed soo much money from China, we are in dept to the point of having to have free trade with them. Thus for us to sell our goods to them, they have to be produced at about the same rate of what it costs them in production. As you have seen by the photos you even helped me post last week. I have created something quite unique in the fact that, what I have created has Never been done so far… And what a huge window of creation, or soo many different ways I can go with this.

The hard part is… I need to buy my base components at a wholesale level to keep my products with in the reach of the folks I yearn to do business with. I knew I was going into unknown territory, but that in itself, was the attraction… I LOve when a new idea comes to my mind and I can produce it, to me it’s a challenge to follow my ideas.
The benefit I have is that I am local, I can meet face to face with my clients. That is another attraction for the folks I want to do business with. I have the Blessing at this time of not really having to worry about local competitors, because they will find that what I am asking for finished one of a kind products is kinda cheap for all the work that goes into each piece.

I know there is much other spending out there that can be cut into. But sadly we both know it will probably never happen. As for dollars being spent for MIC, that in itself is criminal. I sometimes think we neeed to close our borders, send folks who are not documented to be here should be sent home. Close all trade world wide. You are right, we need to get back in step.. Part of what you mention is infrastructure. I agree, and In doing so we need to open some of the closed steel mills and build our own steel to help in this infrastructure rebuilding. And since we are speaking on the front of infrastructure, did you read that the RW wants to do away with the Davis-Bacon Act? Actually they want to take 1 billion out of it’s funding… Why this is important: State employees, or workers who are working for a company that is working for state or gov’t, get the top paying wage.

For example, back in the early 90’s I went and received my AHERA certification. This allowed me to work with asbestos and hazzardous materials removal. My pay was $13.00 an hour. However if I was sent to work at Lowry Air Force Base here just east of downtown Denver, I was paid $18.75 an hour, because Lowry cleanup was a gov’t project. Now, if you remove 1 billion from D-B Act, tradesmen and women who would be working on state or gov’t projects, will make less money. How do the RW think they will boost the economy, by cutting the wage or health benefits to these workers?

I get really lost at this point, and maybe even a bit pissed off as well. Because, we have had very little say for way too long. We the working class have no face. Just ankles and hands to hold onto them as we again take it the wrong way.

Sue Please understand I agree with you and you point out some really Great Truth here with this article. I just feel our coffins have been nailed shut before we have even been able to find if it fits, if it’s comfortable and lastly built while our shaddows still haunt this earth… And probably not even built in this country….. πŸ™

Abby, it is nice to keep up here, cos we are not looking for some snarky reply, but to see the good someone else might have to say… I saw some of my old friends here the other night, but did not see them here last night… I did however see them on HP. Sad, cos sometimes Change can be harmful to some.

2garden, That’s Great to know… I hope you went back and realized that I replied to your last comment to me, and find that I was agreeing with you… No one likes to be Bullied especially by many and even worse when there are others to witness such behaviour.

Hi Abby… I am aware that he has seen the light and knows he can post here, but without the shielding of annoying posters… Matter of fact I think he said so himself.

Plato, I got the same email. Wasn’t really sure if I felt at that time if it was good thing or a bad thing.

Plato, please feel free to have a seat… Was the info I gave you helpful to cancel your account? I had actually started my first account back in 2008… After my choice was elected, I rarely went back to post anything. I did meet a lot of cool down to earth people there.. Guess I missed the good years there, Oh Well.
