A now forgotten reason for the decline of America is the selling out of it's workers by the passage of "free trade" legislation,most notable of which was N.A.F.T.A. Since that time manufacturers,companies and businesses have either moved out of this country or simply shut down.Hundreds of thousands of American workers have lost their jobs. Without restrictions and tariffs on imports made by workers from other countries who are earning a dollar or so a day, American laborers have no chance of competing. Think about it,China, which is still communist no matter what the media will tell you,is producing an absolutely huge amount of products utilizing what is basically slave labour. But that doesn't matter to anyone as long as the prices of goods are cheaper. I find it interesting that we are now seeing the fruit of this "quality"Chinese workmanship evidenced by the ever increasing recalls,some deadly to those who purchased them.
In closing,politicians from both parties supported "free trade." There is not one that shouldn't be thrown out of office for doing so.
Buy American,don't shop at Walmart,support your own people for heavens sake!
