Sure, but America once was the beacon for freedom and opportunity. We once were a civilized first world industrialized nation with plenty of good paying jobs (heck, even electricians could retire before they were 60 years old with good paying pensions!). Decades of corruption and subversion gone unpunished is what destroyed this once-great nation. Outsourcing industry was only part of it. Add to mass debt creation, fiscal insolvency. Greed. Foreign lobbying, collusion and infiltration. The endless expansion of big government into every facet of our economy and lives. Legislation like the Patriot Act that turned the US into a militarized police state. Open borders allowing ANYONE to flood into the country, drug cartels and terrorist radicals included. Endless wars offshore. Did I mention greed? TONS of greed and hubris.
