    Like all leftists, they live in a bubble void of common sense.

    Money insulates one from the problems of society. Plain and simple. But there is a guilt in that. Like JD Rockefeller guilt. The Democrats consistently assuage that guilt by claiming to be the voice of the oppressed. Unfortunately, Democrats, unlike JD Rockefeller, tend to use other peoples' money for their philanthropy.

    Why are some dogs attracted to crap? The smell of corruption entices some.

    Every manufacturing job that went overseas meant an American without a blue collar job which would have paid taxes and into social security. Blue collar people
    need services from the middle class- doctors, accountants, etc. They buy cars and houses. If they don't have a job, they aren't helping to grow the economy.

    Meanwhile, the upper class was still using near slave labor in China to make goods cheaply in order to sell for a big profit in the US. This is a big reason that the rich have gotten richer and the middle class and
    working classes have declined.
    How does this agree with them telling us that there is a labor shortage?

    First, do you take them at their word?

    Their idea of a labor shortage is a lack of workers willing to work at third world wages, no benefits, no serious retirement plan, and no job security.
    Bring back fair pay and job security and you'll see interest in manufacturing jobs return.

    Why is the West in decline?
    The Left's globalist totalitarian cult of secular humanism and socialism.

    Like all the answers to it. Lot of them are vapid and have issues with self-hatred. They have really nothing to worry about and get consumed by self-loathing. They are very closed minded and gravitate to each other.
