A lot of it does migrate to the socialist leaders though Oldguy...
1. The country is falling in part BECAUSE it has become emperial in scope rather than centered on the People of the United States. When our politicians send American jobs overseas to help the poor people over there as though we dont have unemployed people here, you know that someone is getting their bread buttered by the wrong people.
2. Our unionshave been taken over by Marxist radicals who are in unending war with American management. So of course these businesses will try to avoid hiring leftwing loons if it can. I personally have worked at several companies where management had told their workers that if they unionize they will simply shut the plant down for good. They would rather throw away millions in capitol than deal with unions.
3. The new technology is only making workers more efficient. If the government would get off the business communities backs, those businesses could hire more people to produce more goods. But the lay offs, tax hikes and murkey regulatory future discourage any current expansion efforts or business start up.
No, they are returning, just not at the same numbers as when they left. Half a loaf isnt no loaf at all.
Well...that's a silly question, isn't it? The Bible, of course.
Then again, that's an easy answer because Dad Kapital is based upon a faulty premis to start with.
Let me ask you: Do you believe in the Bible?
I think it fails to account for human nature. Marx and Engel's seem to assume that man's better nature will arise when freed of competition and oppression, but I don't buy that notion at all.
Greed, avarice, lust, jealousy...those things don't just disappear in the Marxist utopia.
It's fairly well accepted that win/win scenarios far exceed win/lose or lose/win scenarios in terms of outcome and efficiency--and yet, we adhere to an economic system that is solidly rooted in win/lose philosophies.

Politicians don't directly send jobs overseas. Generally it's regulations that make American industries non-competitive. The EPA is the greatest impediment to American manufacturing.

Unions and Marxism are not compatible. Notice that Marxist countries outlaw trade unions. Our Unions are organized crime - the Mafia.

It's doing a lot more than that.

These Robots Play Fetch | Fast Company
Last night I happened to watch 60 Minutes, which I rarely do, but stumbled across a segment that they said was on robots.
The segment was really on automation in general, rather than robotics specifically. But the gist of the peace regarded the changing world that Americans face due the rapid pace of automation technologies.
Many here know that manufacturing is rapidly returning to America, returning at a rate much faster than it left. Many also know that most of the jobs associated with manufacturing are not returning. Automation is replacing low skilled workers on a massive scale. Computer controlled equipment can do jobs with far greater precision at a lower cost than people can. These are irrefutable.
The conclusion that 60 minutes came to is that automation will push the lower segments of society into persistent poverty, as entry level jobs are eliminated by automation. As a middle age man, this is the same old song and dance to me. I was taught by public schools in the 70's that computers would replace everyone. It never happened, quite the opposite.
But I do see the left paving a path to more economic realignment using workers displaced by automation as the catalyst for demands of more fascist and socialist entanglement and ever greater power to the state.
A couple things you say that I question. Marxist countries don't allow unions you say but China has unions.
Also you say regulations make American industries non competitive, but we had regulations prior to Nafta and the other free trade deals and Americans industries seemed to survive anyway back then.
They've always complained about high taxes and regulations but weren't able to offshore back then and still survived.

Das Kapital is a separate work from "The Communist Manifesto."
Economic Manuscripts: Capital: Volume One
While the Manifesto has no real value, Capital contains many insights that are correct.

So, that's what you see, do you? Maybe so-called "conservatives" like yourself should take a tip from the Bible:
"You hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of your own eye; and then shall you see clearly to cast out the mote out of your brother's eye." Matthew 7:5 (AKJV)
You believe in the Bible?

You know, citing a passage from a work of fiction is always evidence that one "believes" in said work of fiction.
