I keep hearing this term... "Made in America", as if it's made in America, it's better for Americans? That is not always true. Some things I don't care to be made in America. Should American's work in sweat shops in order to make cheap trinkets? The only way you can afford cheap items is to pay people cheaply? Do we want American's working in cheap call centers or is it better to let people in India and Asia (how about Mexico) to do those menial tasks? Do we want American's picking fruit? We complain about illegals but they are the one's putting food on your table. There is a reason steal cities went belly up. Why in the hell do we want to build them back up on false pretenses? They will only fail again. Steal, coal, cheap labor is a misnomer in the US. American's demand high wages but they expect companies to produce cheap shit.

We need to focus on education. American workers need to be highly skilled, working in highly educated positions, not picking cotton.
