60,000 factories in U.S. lost since 2001?

IF you think about this realistically: Why did 60,000 factories close here in the U.S.?

There could be many reasons, but the driving force in all businesses is profit. This doesn't care for the families who lose their jobs and might even go homeless or worse when any factory closes, especially if there is no other Good paying work nearby where all those once employed people live.

So, if people are competing internationally, of course they won't be able to compete with lower waged lower quality things manufactured elsewhere. Because in the end it is always about what people are willing to pay for something that they want to buy.

So, if someone makes something with a little less quality or the same quality for less money somewhere else on earth people are going to go out of business here in the U.S. because there is no one protecting their jobs.

So, this is how the middle Class is dying here in the U.S. directly from these 60,000 factories who have died since 2001.

And these middle Class well paying jobs won't come back anytime soon either. But, without these well paid Americans in the Middle Class our government can't work right either.

So, it is in the interests of all classes of Americans to reinstall anyway they can the middle Class before our government and society collapses into a Banana Republic like many we have seen over the years in Central and South America or in Africa.

So, this is our choice: Find a way to reinstall our middle Class or suffer the consequences as a nation.

The nation cannot be properly governed or work properly if we don't.

You might ask what is wrong with Congress? No middle Class to have the time to watch over Congress.

Very simple.

Without an effective Congress we don't have an effective nation either at peace or in war. And Without a real middle Class nothing is going to function properly.


There isn't any better evidence than Candidates like Trump and Ben Carson in the Republican party to indicate that we are in trouble because they are outsiders an so far ahead.

This indicates to me a death of the middle Class more than anything else.

And who is the Democratic Candidate? Hillary Clinton who is a part of the Clinton dynasty. So, since 1988 either the Bush dynasty or the Clinton dynasty has ruled the U.S.

What's wrong with this picture?

Are we a monarchy now?

We need our middle Class back or we will continue to function as a monarchy or an oligarchy of the rich. And an oligarchy of the rich creates Banana Republics and we don't need that.
