What we need is to get the jobs we sent overseas back here in the US.

The only way we can realistically do that is import barriers. We aren't going to get China to float the yen, we aren't going to get any other nation to stop importing to the US, so we can't stop the outflow of jobs and wealth FROM the US.

Out of the green initiatives that were supposed to stimulate the economy, as much as 80% of the money went to foreign nations (mostly China) who were producing the actual "green equipment". So that's a huge program, designed to stimulate the creation of US jobs, going overseas and leaving us with a few windmills, ethanol mills, solar panels and a huge tax bill.

So we need to bust up those trade agreements that put our labor on an equal footing with Indian labor, put up some serious trade barriers, stop the imports and grow our manufacturing economy, unless you want to all wind up living like they do in Bangladesh.
