Made in America is Deemed Racist by Economist

[Robert Oak]

Folks, you want to see some serious spin, this blog Would We Truly Be Racist If We Demanded "Made in the USA"

Basically an economist has decided that anyone who believes we need jobs in America for Americans or should support Products made in this country....then one is a racist.

The post is long with an embedded video and the juicy quotes pulled out. When I saw this blog post on EP I was just shocked, I mean talk about trying to twist the globalization corporate agenda into trying to claim you're not for that then you are a racist...
well, run the video and see for yourselves.

4. OMG!!! There's a Billy the talking Bass talkin' about impeachment???!!!

:rofl: Only in America! Up till this moment the only bass I have EVER been in total agreement with was pan fried in butter with a hint of lemon! I believe I may have to re-think my position on bass!

btw: I really should apologize for the snark-your OP was about a serious issue. Truth be told I have long ago ceased being amazed at the twisted thinkings of those who call themselves conservatives. Even so shocking an example as you have provided for us can no longer stun me! It is my belief that these folks may truly be alien to our planet-it would be best if they got the hell off, maybe go plague someone else. Sometimes it is just easier to laugh at them, which is why I posted the Billy Bass snark. I suspect that talking bass wound up in the homes of a great many conservatives! (Not the impeachment one-can you imagine if they ALL started saying that though!!!!)

2. I wish I had more things that I could buy that are made in the US

I hate sending my money to countries like China that use slave labor

7. Yeah.

It's sad that you have to really go out of your way to SEARCH for products made in the USA. IMO every product should be stamped loud and clear on the front of it in a big colored label representing the country it can make. So for instance a box might have a big RED stamp that says CHINA on it. I bet walmart would start changing their tunes if that were the case.

5. The quote is from the Ayn Rand Institute.

Most rabid right wingers even know she's full of shit.

6. Such BS.

Since when is America a race? I guess anyone who supports this country in ANY way must be a racist too, makes as much sense. Cripes.

8. Well, Native Americans get labeled "Indian."

That was bad enough. Now they're going to steal jobs from people who live in India? That's going too far. If you're a Native American and you want to provide any goods or services that Americans buy, then you are supposed to apply to the government of India for permission to emigrate to India.
