Look at the trade figures - the US is a net consumer - it uses more than it produces whether that be measured in primary or secondary products.

It is also sending jobs overseas.

Combine all that with the weakening dollar and it means that America will be importing more at a higher cost and so the consumer will have to pay more for everything.

Does that make for a great future for the US?

What will be left at the end of four more years?

Banana Republic may soon become part of the lexicon of the average US citizen
