We gotta try and edge our way out of this asian dependency or we are in trouble...
I think Dave has pointed out a symptom of the major problem. Importing labor from Mexico and China. Why would we need to do this???? Answer; Because the kids are so darn spoiled that they will not work! Construction work is perfect for the young person(and older people too) to build muscle and character. When Americans and Canadians are doing their own work these countries will be healthier. I've worked on construction sites with [censored] when I was laid off in the 80's. They need to go home so the citizens can do the work. Instead of them running home with all that tax free labor money.
