Fire most Democrats in Congress, in state houses, and in city mayors' offices. Their statistics are and have been overwhelmingly, undeniably, and irrefutably negative and destructive to business growth and free commerce. Detroit. Baltimore. East St. Louis. Et al, et al, et al.

We need to bring manufacturing back to the United States. We need jobs for the middle class. There is a total lack of middle class jobs in the US. The middle class is our country's biggest consumer class, it is the biggest driving force for the US. economy.
