		<description>Why are we destroying the USA?

We are losing the economic war!

Why don&#039;t provide extremely high import tariffs on the products that we desire to begin manufacturing in the USA.  The tariffs would be high enough to prohibit the import of these selected products.  This would allow the US manufacturer to employ US citizens at some pay scale several times higher than foreign country citizens get paid.  The US government could select one product at a time for prohibitive tariffs.  We might start with steel, automobiles, auto parts, tires, washers, dryers, refrigerators, computer chips, building materials, computers, data processors, and then other selected manufacturing industries. We should repeal all free trade legislation and international trade treaties.  Our consumable products will cost several times as much as they cost now, but this is necessary.  Otherwise we will become a third world nation of unemployed street beggars.

We are destroying our technology base!

Most of the large US engineering firms outsource the CADD drafting and detailed engineering to India or Pakistan.  There will no technical design jobs when US graduate engineers are not trained as engineers by performing detailed engineering and CADD drafting under the direction of an older engineer.  We need legislation to impose prohibitively high import duty tariffs to prohibit the import of technical engineering and CADD drafting services.

Where do all of these bailout dollars come from?

Since 1972 the USA been redeeming our paper dollars with title to our US real estate, farms, agri-businesses, food supplies, dairies, forests, industries, breweries, hotels, factories, casinos, financial institutions, retail businesses, and most other assets located in the USA, instead of redeeming these dollars for gold.</description>
