2. that is one of the dumbest things he's said.....
Well, at least lately.

Great. The debt load is crushing the dollar, unrestrained capitalism is crushing the third world and the planet, and shit-for-brains wants business as usual?

Damn fool.

5. He's got it wrong.
Big business is successfully competing -- against Americans. That's the problem.

If only big American businesses honestly reported and paid their taxes, we would have the schools, health care, infrastructure and everything else we need to work with to be competitive as individuals in this country.

7. What exactly does "being competitive" mean when our businesses don't
produce much anymore? Don't we import most stuff from cheap-labor economies like China?

8. 80/20 now
Yeah, that's what America needs. Less government revenue and greater corporate profit.

It did wonders for Russia.
