The Only Thing We Have To Export Is Jobs & Our Natural Resources. Damn It!

[TheMastersNemesis]

I just want to go ballistic on TPP. These God Damned legislators who support TTP and other trade agreements are fucking traitors to the US. Look around what do we end up exporting since we don't manufacture shit anymore. We have exported jobs jobs jobs and more jobs. Ane we are cutting down our forests, drilling for oil on our land, developing natural ,et al only to EXPORT it to Indian, China, Japan, Korea, Middle East et al.

And we export our natural resources for pennies on the dollar while prices remain the same here or go up. What kind of damn fools are we that we just don't go ballistic on these bastards and push back and make them uncomfortable. After all almost all of them end up with a job for life and pension. Meanwhile American worked are getting literally "fucked" and taking it in the butt economically.

We should be shouting these assholes down at their meetings over the issue. Any Dem for it should be primaries and we should be blasting the White House as well.

I worked in labor for 24 years. And NAFTA has been the "mother of all" disasters economically. Why are our politicians putting other countries first and American last. And what are out soldiers dying for? How many vets cannot find work? How many war vets are
on the street?.

You just want to spit nails over this POS TPP and have a temper tantrum..

BTW who are those GOP senators going to give our national parks to if they take them back from the federal government and the American citizens who now own them?

1. We can also export..

Access to our world renowned university education, our cutting edge technology r&d (see global foundaries acquisition of IBM's silicon fab), our desireable real estate (see rich foreign all cash buyers snatching up LA homes), and probably a few more things as we let CEOs flush the middle and lower classes down the drain

2. President Obama says we will export what

we do best which is innovation and services. So we will educate the people to make money creating innovation and service. The global market boat has left the dock he said.
I think you are more correct though.
