If America has something so very special about it, why would you let the free market loose on it?
My father supported Goldwater, and my mother was even more socially conservative, and yet both of them, because they remembered the Depression, would have been appalled by the unwisdom of the income disparity of the last 30 years.Those members of the services who stormed the beaches at Normandy would have been appalled too. They did not fight the war for this sort of world.
Now the American people are having to face the consequences through the socialisation of the losses.
There are 7,000,000 Americans who live abroad. Some because of their employment, but more, I would guess, out of choice. Many live here. I know at least 10.
