The way these morons/actors come on tv and act like they know anything about jobs or economics is beyond me.

In China and India. The jobs here switched to the idiotic idea of a "commercial economy"...fucking imbecillic.

Trickle down works! It creates jobs. It creates wealth. It just ignores borders...a fatal fact for the developed nation who tries it.

6. US jobs? Zero
We are now net negative for US job creation in this decade, and that's not even adjusting for population growth (we need to add about 150k jobs monthly to be flat with pop. growth).

9. Manufacturing is only 11.5% of GDP and only 8.7% of jobs in the US
I had a history professor once who said:

"The country that uses its raw materials, adds labor and ingenuity, and sells it to other counties... WINS!"

We are so lost.
