Fixing the economy is simple, why's it so hard?

Incredibly simple to fix our economy...

All we have to do is bring back OUR JOBS! What are the biggest ways to do this?

Higher import taxes. Put this tax money where its needed: education

100% block the import of chinese made goods (improve quality too)

Prevent jobs from going overseas.

When we call an 800 number for support make it ILLEGAL to get sent to a fuckin indian call center (preferably completely block any outside callcenters) This will save us an estimated 100BILLION hours at work not dealing with shitty support

Make Walmart actually carry american made goods again!

Tax the hell out of ANY retailer selling more than 50% of non US made goods (walmart has to be like 2% american made these days)

Prices for goods will go up I know but at least we'll keep our houses! The average american would make 30% more at least so who cares if we have to pay an extra 20% for most things?

the other obvious solution won't go over well in the "world politics" but FUCK THEM! We're in a recession so we don't need to be spending money on developing nations and helping others! America will have a third world countries economy in 5-10 years if we don't focus on taking care of US!
