Bush thinks out-sourcing isn't a problem...

And what, aspen, would you propose we do about this so-called problem?

Please keep your solution within the bounds of the Constitution. You know: the very limited and sharply defined delegated powers of the federal government.

OK. Look at how business and trade was handled by our Founding Fathers and the early years of the Republic....

Intra-state commerce: hands off by the Feds. States handled their own.

Interstate commerce: Feds only regulated for Federal tax purposes.

International commerce: considered as much a national security issue as an economic issue. Feds negotiated & ratified treaties. Used tariffs to protect American business and interests. Main focus was to keep nation strong and independent of foreign manipulation and pressure. Economy as a defensive (and sometimes offensive) weapon option.

When the Feds took the "national security" focus from international trade, we laid our own necks on the block..... :(
