A couple of items i don't get:
If the US is the biggest manufacturer of goods, why is everything a person encounters in day to day life made in china, india, mexico, etc? To say we're the leading manufacturer, to me, sounds like wishful thinking hogwash.
If its so important to bailout the rich, to propagate this trickle down effect, why am i not seeing this trickle down? From where i sit, this trickle down is myth. Try making due on 14 dollars on hour, in a state that has one of the highest costs of living, all the while recieving no pay raises, no bonuses, no chance of promotion, and no opportunities to get ahead. Meanwhile, management has all of that in spades. Walk a mile in those shoes, and then tell me again how trickle down is supposed to work. I'd love to hear about it.
