The Bleeding Of American Jobs
The United States must stop the bleeding of American jobs to cheap-labor countries. If we don't stop this job loss, we will eventually impoverish ourselves, since the overwhelming number of Americans must work in order to live.

There is only one way to stop this loss of jobs. Scrap the North American Free Trade Agreement, withdraw from the World Trade Organization and do what our Founding Fathers intended for us to do — negotiate trade agreements with individual countries.

1. Amen to that.
And part of the trade agreements need to have a clause in the agreement that states that if you want to sell it here, you have to make it here.

Is that really too much to ask for?

2. and address the issue of how corporations
legally organize themselves.
something must be done at the corporate bedrock to disperse their power.
