Jobs -"...What is an economy for if not so that workers
and their families can enjoy the good life their parents knew, so
that incomes rise with every year of hard work, and so that
Americans once again enjoy the highest standard of living in
the world?  ...Our American workers are the most productive in
the world; our technology is the finest. Yet, the real incomes of
American workers have fallen 20 percent in 20 years.  Why are our
people not realizing the fruits of their labor?  ...we have a
government that is frozen in the ice of its own indifference, a
government that does not listen anymore to the forgotten men and
women who work in the forges and factories and plants and
businesses of this country.
          We have, instead, a government that is too busy taking
the phone calls from lobbyists for foreign countries and the
corporate contributors of the Fortune 500".
          From: "Announcement Speech" by Pat Buchanan

 We used to have the largest trade surpluses in the world.
 We're now running the greatest trade deficits in history, 
$200 billion merchandise trade deficits translates into what-
four million lost production manufacturing jobs. 

I will use the leverage of the President of the United
States, as a trade hawk to bust open foreign markets and guarantee
that America's products get a fair shake in Japan and China. And I
will tell them this. `Look, you're running huge trade surpluses at
our expense, $100 billion between the two of you. Either you open
your markets to American goods or you're not getting the free and
easy access to America's goods and America's markets.'
