Reply #4: You know something? Much of what Ghandi preached was the exact same

[truedelphi]

Set of common sense economic principles that guided the American colonists as they revolted against England.

One of their top beliefs was that a nation should create products locally - don't import.

That obne belief, when adhered to means two things

One) there are plenty of local jobs

Two) the local community doesn't have to fear that a foreign nation will lord it over them (Something that is happening to us right now as the rights to our gas and oil is sold cheaply to the Energy Industry in cahoots with our "elected servants." Then we also import from nations far away, and we end up fighting wars to gain ability to have the oil flow here.)

Anyway, I was thrilled to see someone mention Ghandi - and appreciate the photo as well.
