I know it's a moot point but I always hear Trump spout off "Im going to bring back the jobs we lost to NAFTA and other horrific trade deals".


.....how? They're manufacturing jobs. Those are gone for good. It's not like the US is going to start becoming a world power in manufacturing going up against the lightweights of Vietnam and China..

And the real issue is that many more jobs were lost to automation in factories rather than the effects of NAFTA

Quietly goes about his business writing automation.

The trick isn't manufacturing jobs, it's about ensuring a decent level of entry level positions are available to new members of the workforce. Which means we need people to retire so the people in lower positions can take senior positions. And the lower positions open up.

Which means those people need a means to retire.
 
It has to be said that once mental folks like @Adversus/@Cypher/@MartyMcFly have left the conversation, there was some very interesting, thought provoking, and constructive talk in this thread.

Sorry @mezzrow if I bit off your arm with regards to a 'gun' debate by taking such a strong stance. I simply can't reach across the aisle when your side refuses to at all on that one. I don't understand how you as and educated American can poo poo the thought that the second amendment is flawed. We only want some simple controls in place so that people can prove they are able, knowledgeable, and aren't a danger to society based on their previous actions.

How is that a bad thing? All logic circuits demand some sort of check and balances.

The right to bear arms. A shovel is an arm...a iron skittle is an arm...your arm is an arm. A canon is an arm too...should everyone legally be able to own a cannon or a dirty bomb to do their work in the militia as constituted?

Our forefathers did a brilliant job...but they weren't perfect. Neither is the Second Amendment.
