One of the main things hurting the American economy is that the money we spend ends up outside the USA
If we spend that money at Wal-Mart, the money goes to China.
If we spend it on gasoline it goes to the Arabs.
If we buy a computer/Software it will go to India.
If we purchase fruit and vegetables it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala.
If we purchase useless crap it will go to Taiwan and none of it will help the American economy.
The only way to keep that money here at home is to spend it on escorts and beer, since these are the only products still produced in US.
I've been doing my part .
