[quote=Rt.66]….its not “fair” trade and has led to a huge trade deficit. Those trade deficits lead to our national debt. Making stuff creates stable jobs. Is that simple enough?…

Let’s suppose that I give you a job. The job is to wash my dishes. I give you a nice piece of paper saying “Thanks Rt 66. I owe you:)”. Now let’s suppose I give you two jobs. You also clean my apartment. I give you a total of 2 pieces of paper, each saying “Thanks Rt 66. I owe you:)”. Finally, I give you a third job. You launder my clothes. And now I give you 3 pieces of paper saying “Thanks Rt 66. I owe you:)”. Are you better off as I give you more and more jobs?
