Trade Deficit

The U.S. policy makers must realize that the trade deficit is a major detriment to the U.S. economy. Something must be done!

Start by either reducing the number of imports into this country or finally standing up to all of our trading "partners" and getting tough about them accepting our exports into their countries. The dollar has fallen in the last three years, yet the deficits continue to balloon. This is quite an anamoly as our products are cheaper to them, yet it is not effective.

It's not that our products are not wanted, this was proven in the 1990's. It's that policies in the 90's were not carried over.

I'll say this; you kill the "goose with the golden egg" (U.S.) and every other "goose" (country) will go down too.
