		<description>Dear President Gerard:

The real cause for the demise of US jobs is that the average consumer would and will always pay less for a foreign made product than the consumer will pay for a more expensive (American made) product if the consumer has a choice.

This situation requires that the businesses always work to provide a less expensive product with higher quality, and this normally means to use less expensive overseas labor to satisfy the US consumer. Foreigners are happy to work for a small fraction of the pay that US workers demand, so the businesses move the jobs overseas.

The importing companies pay companies and individuals in foreign industrialized countries like China, India, Brazil, Pakistan, and other foreign nations with US dollars to manufacture the things that these US businesses import, distribute, and then sell to the US consumers. 

Manufacturers of vehicles, appliances, and equipment made with imported parts that they paid the people working for foreign companies in foreign countries with US currency to manufacture a large portion of the parts and assemblies for final assembly of the finished product in the USA that is then sold to US consumers. 

The US government has created this economic situation that US gold; US currency; stocks, title to US real estate, businesses, and other privately owned US assets along with the associated jobs are leaving the USA to pay people in foreign countries to manufacture the things that US citizens import and then consume. These amounts of dollars leaving the USA is greater than they would be if US citizens in the USA were manufacturing more of the things in the USA that US citizens were consuming. We must change this situation before the value of the US dollar becomes nothing. This could happen overnight as soon as we have sold title to all of our privately owned real estate, farms, agri-businesses, food supplies, dairies, forests, industries, breweries, hotels, factories, casinos, financial institutions, retail businesses, and all of the other privately owned assets located in the USA in return for the foreigner&#039;s US dollars that they earned by making things for US citizens to consume, and then we will have nothing else of value left to sell to the foreign industrialized nations and then the buying power of the US dollar goes to zero. 

The USA must re-industrialize and correct the balance of foreign trade by any means possible.  The negative balance of foreign trade and the Government borrowing from foreigners for US government expenses if the structural foundation problem that will destroy the US economy.</description>
