What I see is a sad and understandable history of commerce changes in the US.
What I don't see is that American imagination and investment from all of us through
government to restore new industries and cultures to replace or update towns.
Visionary people and support instead of political nonsense would put some
imagination into moving forward.
A few years ago I read an amazing book "The unwinding and inner history
of the new American" by George Packer.
Greed and total focus on profits and not culture and patriotism and building
a better America is not in our culture anymore. Our steel industry was destroyed.
McConnell just made a deal to put a aluminum plant in Kentucky with a Russian
company. Everyone is getting a piece of the action. The Chinese in the US make
the glass that replaces your car windshield. Plant used to be owned by US business.
This is a shameful history.
