Paine and Shakespeare? Whereas I prefer Dorthy Parker: "What fresh hell is this?"

I am not familiar with Dorthy Parker.

Thank you for your concern--but I can assure you that I am brazen, determined and obstinate enough to stand my ground and also quite agile in staying or landing back on my feet. Not that I am prone to error--but I am neither made nor broken by comments on a blog. LOL

If we were all perfect the world would be a dull and boring place!

My only concern is that you tread on shaky ground and I would not like it to fall out from under you at the wrong time.

Indeed. Best not to quote dead men too much, though. LOL

What part of "exporting jobs we cannot fill" are you not understanding? You are talking about exporting jobs we CAN fill. I am not.

The part with the world exporting and the way you use it is the confusion. Exporting is the act of taking something from point of origination and moving it to another land or place. Had you said, that companies should create our surplus jobs in another land, you would have gotten a different response--one that stated, rather than create in another land, companies could then, insource workers once our own employment forces were saturated.As for other countries--they could of course always build subsidiaries--but the main focus and dynamic should always be American jobs in America. Creation would mean not to take something from here to another country--it would mean to develop something there separate from our own base.

No..... the blankets got brought up due to your denial about what Cortez did, his missive back to Europe was in 1519, long before any Englishmen or New England was settled by Europeans--but again, this is digression and totally goes off the original point I keep trying to make--I think maybe you have so much denial of white guilt that you see guilt where there is none and want to fight or dispute it--I do not speak of guilt--the man used diseased blankets--but the posts about small pox started with your post to me-my first post was about Squanto and Pocohantas betraying their own. like I perceive Andor to be doing.

nd there were no blankets involved or anything else. Just plagues. You are so caught up in blankets that you are not seeing the big picture.
