    I'm honored that you guys fear me enough to take such tactics. It just tells me that you cannot beat me fairly.

    Thank You for that...

    Personally, I feel shivers of fear everytime I see that Wild Cobra has posted.



    on second thought: lighten up, Francis.

    I meant the pics in your sig. They were to wide for my screen messing up every thread you posted on. Now it looks ok.

    Why?

    Because the US does not want to share it's wealth with others?

    Yes, that is the asshole is you, the ugliest type of asshole there is.

    So having 2% of the population enjoying 25% of the riches is not enough?

    Ok . . .

    Ok . . .
    Our national wealth came from following economic policies that were the opposite of NAFTA and other similar trade policies. But like mookie said, we've got problems of our own here, one of which is the large and growing amount of wealth that is concentrated at the top of our population. These recent trade policies have done alot to make that problem worse.

    And why in the world should our government worry about taking some of our wealth and giving it away to foreigners? That sounds like treason. But they do it anyway, becuase our elite are all globalists now, working towards "globalization". The UN and all the other one-world organizations love free trade because it moves globalization along more quickly.

    At least you admit that NAFTA is bad for the USA. That's more than I can say for alot of people in this country who have yet to figure that out.

    It's certainly sweeping our collective legs. Now we need to crane kick its ass out of the country.

    What does NAFTA have to do with the redistribution of wealth within the US?

    Without those "foreign" investments, the US would not be as rich as it is. Chicken and egg situation.

    we've got MAJOR problems in our country, the economy doesnt even make the top 10
    Compare those problems with the rest of the world and they are laughable.


    why do you want our "riches"?, isnt that selfish of you?
    Nah . . . I'm not rich, how can I be selfish? Selfish is being rich and developed country and not helping other countries develop

    the same billionaire elites can take your money, become more powerful and put you in debt?

    what good is a starbucks in pakistan or walmart in venezuela?, so they can one day be like us?

    theres going to be a day where we have to decide that economic growth should not be the #1 goal of every government on earth

    What does NAFTA have to do with the redistribution of wealth within the US?
    Nothing. But it does affect distribution. Treating American workers the same as workers everywhere else in the world means that Americans get layed off as companies move jobs out of the USA to foreign countries to take advantage of lower wage costs. It's easy to see how that affects the distrbution of our national income.

    Selfish is being rich and developed country and not helping other countries develop
    Who helped us? What in the world are we supposed to do to develop the world that couldn't be done within each nation itself?

    So why are you against NAFTA then?


    Treating American workers the same as workers everywhere else in the world means that Americans get layed off as companies move jobs out of the USA to foreign countries to take advantage of lower wage costs.

    This would happen with or without NAFTA.


    It's easy to see how that affects the distrbution of our national income.

    So you want the that American companies produce in China, made in the US paying 10 times more in wages, which in turn would make the product much more expensive, simply to maintian some American worker's job?

    Not a lover of compe ion, are you?



    Who helped us?

    Economic conditions in the XIX Century, geographic location, natural resources, migratory waves . . . shall I continue?


    What in the world are we supposed to do to develop the world that couldn't be done within each nation itself?

    For starters, stop subsidizing the out of your farm products, stop putting tariffs on products based on phony allegations of dumping.

    That is a tragedy. You guys have to look up North to find the solution for that problem.

    But how many American 2 year olds get cancer and how many African 2 year olds die because they have no food to eat?

    As I said before, the problems in the US compared to the rest of the world's are very small.

    Oh, by the way, stop spending trillions in the war in Iraq. That money could be used to solve those problems in America.
