The Planetary War for Jobs

I realized today with the Occupy Wall Street Movement blockading with demonstrators most of the Ports in the Western United States that this actually is the beginning of the solution (at least for the United States). Because it is not really the 1% against the 99% like is the slogan, because that is only true if you ONLY look at what is happening in the U.S. without considering international forces at play. IF you consider what is actually going on worldwide you soon realize that your enemy is other countries people fighting for your jobs through lower wages than you can afford to work for here in the U.S. and live and eat and have a place to live and buy clothes and to raise a family and to move forward in your life.

So, in reality the enemy of those who want jobs now in the U.S. is all the other poor starving people on earth who are willing to work for almost nothing just to not starve and die. But, the people in the U.S. need to survive too. So, this becomes a question of who survives to work and live and eat? Now I know this is a very difficult question on a purely philosophical level. But in actuality if you do not eat you die. And in another way if you don't move forwards in your life then you are going backwards towards entropy and death. So, then if people are really serious at looking at the real problems and questions, the only solution for getting real jobs back in the U.S. is to make laws that the products sold here have to be made here. Are you serious about people having jobs here? Then everything we buy has to be made here if you are serious about re-employing those here. It is only pure logic. I suppose that a law could be passed where if we reduce unemployment to under 4 or 5 percent that we could then once again allow imports into the United States. But it must now be viewed as a WAR effort which is a war to get jobs for the 9 million or more now unemployed in the U.S. And to be realistic now it is a war to bring those jobs back to the U.S. to only manufacture what we use here. And I think at least temporarily, until those 9 million or more in the U.S. go back to work we cannot allow imports into the U.S. That is why the Occupy movement is closing all the ports in the western U.S. It is not that any U.S. citizen has anything against any other country. It is that we have no choice now unless we want our country to collapse completely. No matter what anyone else in the world thinks this is what the people of the U.S. are going to do. I can now see it coming! And this likely will happen in most other countries now once the U.S. has to do this. For now, maybe protectionism is the only way to save our country from a potential bloody revolution! I think that is what we are witnessing right now.
