I had occasion yesterday to be back in a small town, one that I was very familiar with growing up and a place that holds some not-so-small sentimentality for me.
One of the features of the town was a large quasi-mansion that once served as the go-to meeting place for home-cooked meals. Converted to a restaurant, the old three-story home contained four large dining rooms on the ground floor, a suite of rarely-used bed and breakfast type rooms on the second, and storage on the third. It served breakfast and lunch every day but Saturday and evening meals Thursday - Sunday. The evening meals were buffet style with southern delicacies like squash casserole, sweet potatoes, frog legs, quail, snap peas with jowl, turnip greens, cabbage,... or you could order steaks (perfectly seasoned) and more from the menu.
When i went back yesterday, that place was abandoned. For sale. The porch rockers where I once waited on a table to open or where I rested after a fulfilling meal were still there, so I parked in one, rocked and watched the street for about an hour.
From the porch, you could see into a once-thriving downtown where pharmacies, clothing stores, hardware stores, banks, five-and-dimes, restaurants, jewelry stores, dry cleaners, the theater, and more once stood. Yesterday all I saw was broken glass, crumbling facades, boarded windows, empty shells.
The entire time I sat there, I didn't see a single person. Only one car cruised slowly past. After about 45 minutes, an ancient stray dog came angling out from behind the abandoned grocery store and loped across the street before disappearing into a vine-choked drainage ditch. It was like a zombie apocalypse had happened, or worse.
Got into my truck and out of curiosity, drove to what used to be the economic engines of the community. Auto parts plant? Closed and padlocked. Lumber mills. Closed. Textile mills. Abandoned. Enormous plant that once made lighting fixtures? Empty, doors kicked in, windows broken.
What happened to this town, that about 30 years ago was thriving?
Two words: Bill Clinton. One word: NAFTA.
Those plants and factories had provided employment for multiple generations of families who called that small town home. With the advent of NAFTA, they packed up and went to Mexico, leaving the workers and their children stranded. The kids had to leave.
In retrospect, I can now see it was purposeful. The strength of this country lay in its working class, small town, church-going citizens. To break America, the globalists had to break the small towns. Force families to give up that traditional upbringing where parents could control what their kids were taught, what they saw, who they associated with. Where they could raise their kids in the way they had been raised, applying the social codes and sense of morality they had learned from their own parents.
NAFTA has done its job. Drive through Alabama. Drive through any state. Take note of the hundreds and thousands of small towns that are boarded up and decaying, very little left. These were proud towns, with a strong sense of community. And now, they're dead - or on their last legs.
The decline has accelerated in recent years, but make no mistake. The globalists, the communists, are playing a long game - a game going back a hundred years or more. And they are winning.
NAFTA was the single worst policy ever enacted. When history is re-written a hundred years from now, it should be recognized as the killing blow for the US. More than anything before or after, it shredded the fabric of the American family and destroyed the sense of community that was once America's greatest strength.

Ross Perot predicted you would hear a giant sucking sound if it was fully implemented - the sound of jobs being sucked or drained into Mexico from the US. And he was right, even though left wing economists and the NYT will try to tout our net job growth between 95-2000 as to why he was wrong. But he wasn't. Yes we had net job growth in the decade after....but they were either govt jobs or low wage jobs. They were not jobs where we produced things, were skilled or had decent wages.
Everything has been cheapened down. Sure we like 199 Smart TVs but what's been the cost to our society as a whole? A lot. Americans have been trained to want super cheap goods while at the same time having super high wages and jobs available. That paradigm will never reconcile. Because to have the former, all manufacturing has to take place in 3rd world countries. Although I am of the belief that goods CAN be manufactured here using lean practices and sold at a decent cost. Decent being the keyword....not rock bottom cheap. But it's way easier just to let poor countries build the crap, so that's what most of these corporate leaders opt for. Problem is this mentally bleeds out to Main Street and small town America with thriving small business that K speaks of.
The country has been sold out. It's a race to the bottom on quality and cost. It's a race to the bottom on lifestyle and economic health. Everyone wants wealth but most who don't have a degree of comfort in that area also do not want to grind for it, contrary to what any bleed hearts here say. I see this with my own two eyes daily. People have been conditioned to be lazy, entitled, weak and dependent. You can call it broadbrushing but I see it oh so often - it's all over the place. This should be apolitical and logical but it always gets flipped sideways into an empathetic debate. Or ends up commanding a reply along the lines of "ok, boomer" or "tell us more gramps" because there is no logical retort.
And it's not some anti-trade Mercantilist, nationalist rant - it's a true concern. The economy works best when it is diversified at all levels - not just SUPER HIGH earner, SUPER LOW earners and most of it being service based. We also need those others sectors, and that's what has left.
Rome - I think were there if something drastic doesn't happen. And it's sad because we have ultimately as consumers been the ones that have demanded this situation not even knowing it. Economically speaking anyway. Socially speaking is a whole other issue.

All of the above is valid. Both posts. But I don’t think we should only blame Slick Willie. He had a Republican majority in both house and senate that could have fought. And Bush was a supporter, the best I remember. Regardless, there was definitely uniparty/establishment support.
But, man we sure had cheap jeans for a while there.
And the ultra wealthy still have their cheap labor as the democrats tell us that America first is xenophobic and a wall is racist.

The South Park guys (of all people) nailed this recently with the Panderverse episode. It's the b-plot of the show, but can best be summed it with the following statement that's repeated throughout: "nobody knows how to do shit anymore"

I fuggin’ love South Park. They have such a gift at pointing out societal lunacies and making you pee your britches with laughter at the same time.
Cartman being transgender only by throwing a pink bow on to justify shitting in the girls bathroom, Mr./Mrs. Garrison portrayed accurately as someone with mental illness.. “I’m not a fag, I’m a woman!”

No argument there. It was extremely bipartisan. So was the opposition to it. It's just good vs bad. Biut Bill ultimately pushed it as part of his agenda. In fairness so did Reagan and HW but what became NAFTA was far more of a lopsided trade agreement than anything Reagan ever had in mind.
Free trade won't always be even and "fair trade" but it needs to be close.Trade deficits are not healthy, NAFTA and later on the trade agreements with China in the late 90's were a death knell for American production and manufacturing.

I realize that I am not an expert in the area. And I admit to supporting Perot. Looking back, it was a mistake from the standpoint of helping Slick Willie win.
At the same time, I was voting my conscience. Perot was the only way to not go toward NAFTA and GATT.
GH you seem to be the most well informed on the issue. Would you say that Trump’s trade views are more in line with Perot than any candidate since Perot?
That’s been my conclusion.

That’s been my conclusion.
Perot would have been a better POTUS than either of his opponents. He also took equally from both candidates despite urban legend because of his more moderate stance on social issues and abortion. What he pulled from each side wasn't enough to sway it to either one of them, in either direction. I think he would have been good though.
There are ways to even out trade and much of that is in negotiation when the trade agreement is made. We gave too much away with NAFTA and China, and Trump's retaliation to China with extreme tariff changes and a trade war was probably ill advised even if with good intentions.

It's immigration. No reversing that. Idiots flee rising crime, rampant homelessness and inflation, cultural decay and drag their loud, obnoxious, failed ideologies where they go. Eventually they stupidly why things are going to shit in their new locale, completely unaware its their own toxicity that causes it.

I remembered a Chicago reference in past conversation, I s’pose.
Did you know?
Army personnel (except WT Jr, of course) leave their accents behind when they join and adopt grunts, moans, and knife hands to point as their preferred method of communicating. There are also strangely timed “hoo-ahs”. I lived in prison Army barracks at Ft. Bragg for a spell, so I know these things.

I can neither confirm nor deny the daring and covert missions behind enemy lines that I have told drunk chicks at the bar about. That never worked out very well.

Uninformed.
There's a sense of entitlement like nothing I've ever seen before.
They "deserve" jobs where they can work from home at least half the time, work fewer than 30 hours a week (because they need 'down time'), have unlimited PTO, and make at least $75,000 a year. They can't be criticized because they're too fragile to take it. Things like accountability, performance-based or merit-based pay - or even showing up on time - are antiquated colonial constructs.
And that circles back to the death of the American small town where parents passed down their work ethic, morals, values, and beliefs to their children. It speaks to the death of the nuclear family that was lost as the small towns died.

Tell him to try that in a small town, k. I would tell him but he refuses to interact and it usually just ends up making me cry.

The inability to participate meaningful in the accumulation of personal wealth is grinding their asses. They can't afford a home, wages aren't keeping pace with pricing...they're pissed at everyone pulling the ladder up behind them and offering nothing but bootstrap platitudes and bullshit nostalgia about how you could go to the movies for a nickel in their day.
They're very aware of the inability to grow money on a tree.

Proof that you know zero youth.
They're pissed that they aren't simply handed what they haven't earned and unwilling to take the lumps to learn it.

We know different youth then.
For what it's worth? I have a huge amount of disdain for a large chunk of Boomers (64-78 age range) and their glorified, distorted memories of "yesteryear". Actually if you look at the biggest group who has caused the most damage in their positions of power thus far? Its them. Clinton, W, Hillary and the rest of that generations ilk that has been monkeying up monetary and domestic policy for decades.
Although millennials are catching them quickly. There is a generation and a half between those two that dislike them both and for good reason. 90+% of this board falls in that category.

I don’t know exactly what the official names for: K, Snags, CTE or JMAR. It’s probably different generations but you can just lump them all together and call them antique. K is 80 something but he’s pretty horny.

I think there are way too many broad brushes being used in this discussion. And I hate all the labeling of “generations”…Boomers, Millennials, Gen-X, as if everybody that falls within a particular age group, thinks and acts a certain way. They don’t. Everybody has different life experiences that shape how they approach everything from jobs, to relationships etc. I’ve got two kids who are polar opposites in the way they approach those things. At my firm, we’ve had way too much turnover in the last few years. As a result, we have interviewed quite a few applicants, both young and old. We’ve hired and fired quite a few as well. We’ve seen extreme entitlement. We’ve seen super aggressive employees. We’ve seen F’n sorriness. That goes for all age groups.

why do you hate your parents?
the generation you disdain above you, right or wrong, helped elect Trump in '16 and will do so in '24. carried the majority of the electorate for Trump in '20
you should be thanking them.

Every generation
Blames the one before
And all of their frustrations
Come beating on your door
Oh, crumpled bits of paper
Filled with imperfect thought
Stilted conversations
I'm afraid that's all we've got
So we open up a quarrel
Between the present and the past
We only sacrifice the future
It's the bitterness that lasts

every generation helped elect Trump. Every demographic. Every race, income bracket, education level and people from the other side that were more pro-union. That same generation also brought us the modern left, and hippies.
do not dislike them all - just a big bulk of them are absolutely insufferable. Ie - boomers in my neighborhood complain about speeders and dogs pooping in their yards....turns out, boomers are the ones speeding and letting dogs poop in yards. The same exact people. They are all retired and bored so I guess they sit around and come up with this shit. The same way they do revisionist stories of days past.... I dunno. It's just annoying.
I have a huge respect though for the one before them....the greatest generation.

Appreciate the sentiment but Mike Rutherford is not a Gen X'er, and his dad was a WW2 era Greatest Gen member. Mike has to be in his 70's now. The Boomer - Greatest Gen dynamic was a weird one. The hippies of the late 60's clashing with the WW2/Korean vets.

He only wrote the music (if you believe the hype). B.A. Anderson wrote the lyrics. He's 67. Old Gen X but he's Gen X. All that depends on which list you look at. As usual, nice deflection. Who was what generation wasn't the point. The point was in the words.
Also, Mike Rutherford - no one would know who he was if Phil Collins didn't carry his bum ass for decades.

They didn't carry Trump, but they contributed more than they normally would to a GOP Nominee, to Trump - Union, Dems, Blacks, Hispanics.
Shocker, annoying people annoy people. Call it venting but when you see and hear it all day every day, yeah it's aggravating. And unneeded. They are bored, sad people. Watching them on the Faces of Book is downright comical, especially when they leave ALL CAPS on, yelling at the clouds but anywho..... Kerryon....

Born in 1956 is a boomer my dude...Gen X only spans 1965-80 by most accounts. I think it's noteworthy because of what I said above - with the past dynamic of Boomers and the Silent/Greatest Gen. That was the relationship he and Rutherford had with their dads that prompted the song. I had a better relationship with my grandparents, than my parents had with them growing up. I saw that dynamic live and in person play out. Sad really, when they die. I see your point though.

by age the baby boomer did carry Trump with out that vote you would had Hillary for 8 years.
so I get to hear a GenX complain about baby boomers. got it.

my view of this particular use case is from an HOA lens for context....I am on the HOA board and a contact for things. When I get blown up constantly while in the middle of meetings and work, over the stupidest shit like that, and then pull camera footage only to find out they are gaslighting themselves in a circle, completely wasting my time....and its only these people? Yeah, I'll complain some.
At the end of the day, if this isn't happening, you wouldn't see me complain. Root cause analysis here. But not sure why it rustles you so much.... Like the other thread, this isn't a hill I will die on. I won't post any bad things about boomers, to spare this argument. Everyone has different perspectives in their daily. Ive never had an issue with you before and still have no issue with you personally. Agree to disagree here.
Again, Kerryon...back to the regulary scheduled death of America

for sure plenty of filming in Astoria (the house, the jail, among others) and filmed as far south as Cannon Beach.
