Manufacturing Jobs Drop To Lowest Level Since 1941

Just look at these charts and it explains why we are slowly loosing our economy. The means of production is the back bone of any advanced civilization. With out producing the items we want and use, we just transfer wealth from one country to another. There by weakening the country which doesn't produce its goods. This is a problem and will only get worse unless we Americans start changing our ways and become more disciplined consumers. We are all guilty of wanting cheap prices and willing to buy the items which most likely are not made in America. Like flying American flags that are made in China. The countries in which these cheap items are made are just exploiting their citizens by force labor or some other form of slavery. By trading with countries for cheaper prices we are in fact supporting these governments which violate most of gods laws. In a way I feel we are building up Satan's kingdom on earth when we become involved into their financial support. We build up these corrupt governments and make them even more powerful which allows them to get a more complex hold on their people. When you have vans in China that drive around to harvest people's organs to sell them on the world market then you can start to understand the evil, not to mention forced abortions in China. Most people don't understand how evil some of these countries are and don't want to know. Our money really isn't transferring to the people of these countries it's going to the government oligarchs. A small group of elites who don't care about humanity, all they want is power and gain over people.
This is also happening in America slowly over the past 100 years. America is changing for the worse and we are being brainwashed from birth not to see or care about it. Our leaders act as if they regard our Founders but very few follow or teach their principles. When was the last time you even heard a Congressman quote a Founding Father. It's almost like Washington D.C. fears the Founders attitude on government and want to keep the general public in the dark so that they can have their power and gain. The Federal Government knows they are operating outside the Constitution and need most Americans unaware of this, so it can continue. My challenge to every American is to do some research for yourself and become aware of what correct principles of government are according to God and the Founding Fathers. Government wasn't created to grant us our rights, it was to protect them. Freedom, liberty and following God's higher laws is what really brings prosperity to a nation and it's people. Neil
