SOTU : HANDLE THE TRADE DEFICIT AND THE REST WILL BE SOLVED

THE NOTION THAT THE BUDGET DEFICIT IS KEY TO THE AMERICAN ECONOMY IS MISPLACED...

THE REAL ISSUE IS ONE THAT NO ONE WHATS TO TALK ABOUT...OR EVEN ADMIT...

ITS THE TRADE DEFICIT...

THE TRADE DEFICIT SUCKS MONEY AND JOBS OUT OF THE US ECONOMY ...MAINLY TO ASIA...

THE BUDGET DEFICIT MERELY REDISTRIBUTES MONEY INSIDE THE US ECONOMY...SO IT IS LESS DAMAGING...

THE TRADE DEFICIT TAKES JOBS, CAPITAL, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT OUT OF THE US...WHAT COULD BE WORSE!

THAT IS THE REAL SOURCE OF THE PROBLEMS...THE DECLINE OF THE MIDDLE CLASS AND THE SHRUNKEN ECONOMY...NOW BEING SUSTAINED BY FED MONEY PRINTING...

THIS IS BASIC ECONOMICS...BUT ITS NOT THE KIND OF THING YOU WANT IN THE MEDIA....  WHY?

BECAUSE MANY OF AMERICA'S KEY COMPANIES ARE DEPENDENT ON CHEAP AND DIRTY FOREIGN LABOR...  APPLE IS THE WORST OFFENDER...BUT UNTIL RECENTLY HAS BEEN THE ICONIC AMERICAN SUCCESS STORY...

SIMPLY PUT...THE K.I.S.S. BOTTOM LINE IS THIS...

SOLVE THE TRADE DEFICIT AND YOU WILL SAVE THE MIDDLE CLASS...HAVE LIVING WAGE VALUE ADDED JOBS...AND HAVE A GROWING ECONOMY...

DON'T SOLVE THE TRADE DEFICIT...AND THE ECONOMY WILL CONTINUE TO SHRINK...JOBS WILL PAY LESS...AND THE DEPRESSION WILL CONTINUE...

AS USUAL NOTHING WILL "WORK" AND NO ONE WILL KNOW WHY...!

BUT NOW YOU DO KNOW WHY...
