Well Americans wanted cheap, cheap, cheap, right ? You could've supported your local manufacturers instead of Walmart. It is too late now. It is like dem democrats believing criminals are good, but impoverished people. Now you have stores closing everywhere. Actions, meet consequences.
"When the Chinese come, they talk about building a port or High Speed Train, then the Americans come, they talk about building military bases and High Speed Missiles!"
Well said. Every time I get in a discussion with people over China, I tell them China didn't "steal" our innovation, or manufacturing, or work ethic. Its the opposite, we just handed it to them for the cheap labor. People unfamiliar with "making things" don't understand. You can't ask someone else to make your stuff, unless you tell them, in detail, your innovation and plans for that "thing". Everything at the store is made in China, yet our politicians, who have no ability to make anything, now call China "the enemy". Even much of our pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical chemicals come from China. We'd better not make them mad, otherwise we will have to learn to go without just about everything that makes our lives modern and good.
most of it is innovation by the east too. remember cheap and substandard products in the 90s? it is unavoidable for a manufacturer to be bad until they learn enough to be good. ironically, thats what holding back america right now, unwilling to do risks and look bad thats a flaw, once get over the perception of failure, it will burst into life as a modern day rivendell. right now its just stagnating.
We destroyed our own manufacturing ourselves. It was very deliberate over many years, and anyone who dared to even raise an eyebrow over it was called a "naysayer". People seem to have amnesia about this now. It's delusional to blame other countries and hold them responsible. Actually, it is shameful.
I traveled all over the USA from the early 1970's to 2010. I watched them take apart American Manufacturing, and import Japan Steel to Pittsburg. They took the mail off the trains, the small towns wen away the small farms dried up, then the small Towns went away. Greed killed the American dream. Capitalism will have a tough time surviving.
I'm 76 40 YRS in manufacturers - machines shops, and remember ALL of that.. Always struggle looking for work. Greedy CEOs FACK THEM NOW.. LET THEM GO DEEP NOW !
Sometimes, when you are "too smart by half", it is difficult to understand each other especially when the smartness is based on its on his/her limited capacity; thinking others are as "smart" as they are!

Dulan Ratigam wrpte a book some years agp describing how the Federal Reserve governors got together and decided to ship jobs out of the country in order ro destroy labor movements. This all came together probably in the late 1970s and it worked. Labor has been weakiened. Wage earners have seen no significant increase in wages for the past 40 years. We have shifted to a gig and part time work force many of whom have no health insurance, no retirement plan and no other benefits like vacations. Meanwhile, as everyone knows, massive amounts of wealth have accrued to the top .01% of participants in the economy. I didn'tcall them earners because they are essentially looters who concoct more ways to gouge money from stressed workers like increasing the cost of housing and medicines and even essential household items. Thjere is a reason why many of the people you see living under the bridge are also workers.
I was born in the early 1950s, so I saw the US at its peak in the 1960s & early 1970s. One word can account for the increasing poverty and hopelessness and that word is: GREED. Greed spread through boardrooms and in our Federal Government and regulatory agencies became a way to get rich by working for those you were supposed to be regulating. The bloated officer corps of the US military is the worst in this regard. Our military sucks so hard, it’s a crime.
Yeah, citizens suffering while coffers of the weaponry industries are being enriched to unquenchable levels. To pacify citizens, they are looking for a scapegoat in China in their blame game. Sad...
Born in 1944. Worked for a while for a machinery rigging company. As U.S. companies were shutting down we were hauling huge machines to Hunter's Point in New York to be put on ships that took them to other countries. It was heart breaking back then.
When you do something wrong, the easiest exit is to blame someone else, at the cost of learning nothing from your mistakes, so you will keep doing things wrong until you fail once for all.
This is an important video that lays bare the fallacy of American propaganda that vilifies China, Russia and others for the very problem of American monetary malfeasance. American foreign policy and deceit has inflicted a terrible cost on people around the world. The US Dollar, as a fiat reserve currency, has been nothing but toxic. Thank you Lena.
A very important philosophy book written 5,000 years ago became the gene of chinese people. It argues human should be diligent, honest and at peace with himself, others and the mother nature.
Tell this to a westerners. Left ear in, right ear out. They will say we are number 1, everybody should listen to us NOT a third world country or a yellow skin.
While the U.S spent many decades wasting resources on policing the world, China spent that time nation building and developing their supply chains. When China needs cheaper labour, they move their manufacutring to poorer regions of China where it helps lift people out of poverty. When the U.S needs cheaper labour they moved their manufacturing offshore.
The people in Congress, Federal Reserve, US Treasury, Corporations and their greed are why some have 245 million and some are living paycheck to paycheck.
Further, they try to distract the American populace and lay blame on other countries like China. While they themselves walk away scott free, never held accountable for sending said jobs overseas. Essentially, selling the American people out, and making a killing in the process, hand over fist, year over year. And you know what, it is working, the average American are falling for this blame game. It is nowhere more evident than during the upcoming US election campaign; they've already jumped on this false narrative. The US will inevitably fall, and it only has itself to blame because it fails to see this and change its ways and chart a completely different course.
As George Carlin said if you keep voting the same people into power how can things change. This has been happening for at least 50 years, nobody seemed to care.
Spot on! Why blame the success of others and not looking to correct one’s own shortcomings? It is a headache for the Chinese government to think of ways to create millions of new jobs for their new university graduates every year. Spending time and resources to take care of your own people should be the primary goal of any responsible government
I would say: that the government first-objective and priority should be the welfare of its population, anything else should be secondary... military prowess should be last not first.
hehehe, who wants to work in the USA when we can go straight in broad daylight into a box store and bring out anything less than $1,000 without consequence.
Which politician has the foresight to come up with such policies? May be related to that police officer in Canada who suggested homeowners to hang their car key outside their homes to prevent a home invasion.
Lena Petrova ... it's great listening to a highly educated and rational person. There are so many stupid people on the Internet spewing hatred for all Human Beings that don't match their profile. Also, you have a pleasant speaking voice and ... I love your accent.
Lena, you are the only American who can see and speak the truth. I am an overseas Chinese Singaporean ( not Chinese national). We have the same problem of industries moving out. But our government are hard on upgrading to new industries, better infrastructure and most important to train the old workers to adapt to new industries.
Considering the number of those who continue to enjoy some profits from Capital, when faced with a faceful of hooves, predators do move along. The concept of Democracy while popularly accepted, is not actually any different from the Monarchy of 1770's. A small group of Catholic Investors may donate to purchase a Politician. They ignore His faith in Moses and David, and delivers to some Moslem Dude, The Ballot Box with all the Names that are allowed. Has worship of currency in any form, been given a religious group designation? A Church of the Holy Capital? the devotion to Capitalism has again turned deadly.
It is what the oligarchy demands. They want the highest possible returns on all the billions of dollars that flow to them every year. They own the political parties, the media, and most of the associations including the UN and WEF.
I am going into my 15th year as a teacher. The biggest problem I think is our curriculum is one size fits all. We teach to the middle. So our lower kids struggle, our middle kids stay average, and our high students are bored. It's very hard to plan individual lessons when you have 20 plus kids and teach every subject.
I live in South East Asia. So long as the US don't drop bombs in my country, my people and I are happy without the US in anything at all. The US imposition of high tariffs on Chinese goods is simply admissions that the US cannot compete. I am sorry for the US people that they have to pay twice the price for the same Chinese goods we get in SEA. Don't they think it is time for them to get rid of politicians who thought they can rule the country the easy way out: collecting custom duties and printing money. Any fool can do that. You need big fools like Donald Trump to think imposing tariffs and printing money is being very smart.
In the 90’s the manufacturing was shipped to Asia in order to increase profits. The best jobs were in finance in merging companies and each deal rewards you million dollars. The mood was engineers were losers. In an interview they gave me a McDonald meal for lunch. After I didn’t want to tell people I was an engineer.
Many years ago when I was doing some contractual work for a finance company the person I was speaking too made the comment of long sleeve shirt and short sleeve shirt and I asked what did she mean she said in Finance you wear a long sleeve shirt and work at the most expensive part of the city and those at the other end wear short sleeves , on a warm day when in the street you could see who was who
The USA is following the same path as Europe; big government, high taxes, and over regulation. The big difference is that Europe has massive social welfare programs, while the USA has massive military budgets. In both regions, economic growth is declining while government debt continues to grow. Both the USA and Europe can become competitive again but even if the decision was made to do so, it would likely take one or two generations to achieve that. The USA needs to drastically reduce military spending, reduce the size of government, lower taxes, and most importantly, overhaul its education system, and eliminate useless and burdensome regulation.
As an outsider, I do not forsee the status quo changed. You would not be able to achieve bipartisan consensus on valid statements you have made. Unfortunately I see the institutional corruption and ideological mismanagement continuing
Is the problem "big government" really? If the government works for the people, and not just special interest groups, big government might just mean more gets done.
Absolutely bang on the nail I live in England and it is exactly the same. Unfortunately our new government just loves the EU that is a non elected empire builder .

An unfortunate situation for workers, but perhaps they should pay more attention to what their elected representatives promise and compare it to what they actually do. Then next election they would know who failed. What is happening now is because they do not hold them accountable.They vote the same rep. back in. Think about it!!!
Thank you for an excellent presentation and explanation of how we got here and what we must do to develop manufacturing. I agree we must stop spending our money on unnecessary foreign wars!
NAFTA and CAFTA killed both furniture and textiles in Carolina. These were multi-decade primary industries. These were not high paying jobs, but these employed a majority general workers. Clinton is the one that I recall promoting these saying we all would benefit through the exchange of trade. By offshoring these jobs, this production knowledge was simply lost in one generation.
I admire your honest and to-the-point opinions. I hope America will pay attention to it and try to understand the truth and stop living in a fool's paradise.
And shipping. Remember that canada was shipping their goods through America to Mexico. Just to take advantage of the cheaper shipping cost at Mexico's ports.

Very enlightening at the same time very sad at the current state of affairs. As part of the community, you as a voice of reason perhaps can help all of us kickstart something into existence and get the ball rolling into a positive spin.
be frank, to return to US manufacturing, 1. Stop refunding policy as people are paying for not one product per purchase, people are paying for refunds. 2. Stop theft 3. Stop rental increase and rent control program 4. Start local businesses program 5. Return to anti monopoly business program. 4. Stop voting for tea parties, both demo and rep, as they are the same.
Please bear in mind that the transistor and semiconductor chip were invented in the US. I completely agree with your assessment of the lack of STEM support in the US. Everyone wants to be a hip hop star instead of a scientist. This will be the death knell of the US.

The US economy has been roughly 70% consumer/service sector based for over two decades, and what little we manufacture is in kinetics and consumables. To even attempt to reverse this would take a very long time, but that will never happen considering all the economic, governmental, spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical problems the country has.

Considering the number of those who continue to enjoy some profits from Capital,
when faced with a faceful of hooves,
predators do move along.
The concept of Democracy while popularly accepted,
is not actually any different from the Monarchy of 1770's.
A small group of Catholic Investors may donate to
purchase a Politician.
They ignore His faith in Moses and David,
and delivers to some Moslem Dude,
The Ballot Box with all the Names that are allowed.
Has worship of currency in any form,
been given a religious group designation?
A Church of the Holy Capital?
the devotion to Capitalism has again turned deadly.
Wall street is predatory.
It is what the oligarchy demands. They want the highest possible returns on all the billions of dollars that flow to them every year. They own the political parties, the media, and most of the associations including the UN and WEF.
In the UK it was asserted that manufacturing was dirty; we are now a Service Economy.
Similar to the US. We went further with not even encouraging or making it possible for kids to explore skilled trades.
Same with the building trade, it was devalued in the uk
now a service economy, later will be just a political bullshit economy
Britain once the workshop of the world is now a "nation of shopkeepers".
"Servicing" other countries.
Things that really needed to be said, Lena! Thank you for your work!
YOU ARE AN EXCELLENT HOSTESS AND JOURNALIST.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DEAR.
They practice these methods on their own public before hoping to apply to other countries through "democracy". The world is not blind or stupid.
I am going into my 15th year as a teacher. The biggest problem I think is our curriculum is one size fits all. We teach to the middle. So our lower kids struggle, our middle kids stay average, and our high students are bored. It's very hard to plan individual lessons when you have 20 plus kids and teach every subject.
Very true 👍
Only 20? Try Philippines. Teachers in the Philippines have 40+ students in a classroom. They teach, make lesson plan and are advisers too
@@erenyeagerist7681 I am sure your students are excited to learn and aren't as disrespectful as American kids.
I live in South East Asia. So long as the US don't drop bombs in my country, my people and I are happy without the US in anything at all. The US imposition of high tariffs on Chinese goods is simply admissions that the US cannot compete. I am sorry for the US people that they have to pay twice the price for the same Chinese goods we get in SEA. Don't they think it is time for them to get rid of politicians who thought they can rule the country the easy way out: collecting custom duties and printing money. Any fool can do that. You need big fools like Donald Trump to think imposing tariffs and printing money is being very smart.
"When the Chinese come, they build us a new hospital or airport. When the Americans or Europeans come, they come to lecture us.
In the 90’s the manufacturing was shipped to Asia in order to increase profits. The best jobs were in finance in merging companies and each deal rewards you million dollars. The mood was engineers were losers. In an interview they gave me a McDonald meal for lunch. After I didn’t want to tell people I was an engineer.
Many years ago when I was doing some contractual work for a finance company the person I was speaking too made the comment of long sleeve shirt and short sleeve shirt and I asked what did she mean she said in Finance you wear a long sleeve shirt and work at the most expensive part of the city and those at the other end wear short sleeves , on a warm day when in the street you could see who was who
What? 😭
Blaming ourselves does not make our people feel good, and does not win us political brownie points. Let’s blame China.
In desperation. Go to mental hospital.
Thank you for explaining this. If we don’t reverse course all of the knowledge gained by previous generations will be lost.
It's gonna take a huge genie from a humongous bottle to bring about any sort of change.
You mean the boomers who made this mess?
@@erenyeagerist7681
Wall Street money for no personal sweat made this mess.
Thank you Leona for your intelligent analysis! I vote for you to be the economical adviser to the next president.
When Janet Yellen quote "Chinese overcapacity industrial" she was actually referring to "the US under capacity industrial" 😂😂😂😂
The USA is following the same path as Europe; big government, high taxes, and over regulation. The big difference is that Europe has massive social welfare programs, while the USA has massive military budgets. In both regions, economic growth is declining while government debt continues to grow. Both the USA and Europe can become competitive again but even if the decision was made to do so, it would likely take one or two generations to achieve that.
The USA needs to drastically reduce military spending, reduce the size of government, lower taxes, and most importantly, overhaul its education system, and eliminate useless and burdensome regulation.
As an outsider, I do not forsee the status quo changed. You would not be able to achieve bipartisan consensus on valid statements you have made. Unfortunately I see the institutional corruption and ideological mismanagement continuing
Is the problem "big government" really? If the government works for the people, and not just special interest groups, big government might just mean more gets done.
Bravo! You are right!
Why TH-cam have not deleted this comment is beyond me. It makes too much sense.
Over regulation for average people not elites
Absolutely bang on the nail
I live in England and it is exactly the same.
Unfortunately our new government just loves the EU that is a non elected empire builder .
What did your old govt do😂😂😂😂
US private education has declined as quickly as public.
An educated public is dangerous. Give them just enough to perform well, but not enough that they can think for themselves.
This video is real eye opener. thanks to leena
Bless you, Ms Petrova,
Excellent presentation, finally someone sheds the truth so badly needed, thank you!
Also the IT/Computing jobs were outsourced to India for cheaper labor cost.
No wonder whenever I called tech support, the calls were always routed to India!👽☠💀
Yep, I have personally trained my Indian offshore replacements at 3 different companies. Got laid off afterward all three times. Fuck U.S. corporate America.
You mean those people saying "learn to code" were full of crap?
✊🏽👍🏽🙋🏽♀️Excellent summation of the Government’s “deliberate divestment, dividing, deceiving, and dumbing down of America” in less than 15 minutes👏🏽💕✅
Thank teaching, explaining and caring. 🥰😊
How much money has been spent on defence & wars since 1945 ? Inagine what could have been possible.
Give Peace aa Chance - John Lennon.
What "defense"?
It's all offensive, very offensive indeed.
@@thinkingtoomuch7974true! USA engineered all the conflicts and chaos all around the world so that would give them an excuse to bomb other countries and commit genocide like what they did in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Serbia, Iraq, Libya, Syria and etc.
Are we talking about a Banana republic without bananas?
Yes and also the Bananas are from S. American countries, our neighbors!
Yes. Without bananas and yet with plenty of baboons.
👍👍👍👍👍👍and many more Thumbs UP . Lena a very intelligent and beautiful Human Being...🙏🙏🙏
An unfortunate situation for workers, but perhaps they should pay more attention to what their elected representatives promise and compare it to what they actually do. Then next election they would know who failed. What is happening now is because they do not hold them accountable.They vote the same rep. back in. Think about it!!!
@nametbd233busy working or busy partying and going on hookups?
I remember my mom losing her job in a textile factory when it moved to Mexico, in the early 80's.
Have you ever thought about running for public office? Am I correct that you live in Texas? If so, I would love have you in Congress or Senate.
Thank you for an excellent presentation and explanation of how we got here and what we must do to develop manufacturing. I agree we must stop spending our money on unnecessary foreign wars!
Always speaks the truth.
Lena thank you so much for all you do to keep us informed ❤️
The US has failed to invest in the three key areas because the leadership is to busy filling there own personal pockets.
Thanks for sharing as always. Much appreciated.
NAFTA and CAFTA killed both furniture and textiles in Carolina. These were multi-decade primary industries. These were not high paying jobs, but these employed a majority general workers. Clinton is the one that I recall promoting these saying we all would benefit through the exchange of trade. By offshoring these jobs, this production knowledge was simply lost in one generation.
herkes açgözlülüğünün bedelini ödeyecek...
Blame the Neo-liberal capitalism.
Most excellent analysis.
I admire your honest and to-the-point opinions. I hope America will pay attention to it and try to understand the truth and stop living in a fool's paradise.
Bravoooo Lenaaaa 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 loves you ❤❤❤❤
Lena, u should be the presidential candidate. Your explanation is clear and simple.
Omg you are the only sensible true voice on the internet 🙏🙏🙏 thank you
Lena, I’ve lived through all you reported. Next step of gov will be to take my Social Security or greatly diminish it.
Solid analysis
Goodnight! The Netherlands, Holland, 00.19 at night overhere
NAFTA killed a % of the jobs or jobs outsourced overseas. Due to cheaper labor costs
And shipping. Remember that canada was shipping their goods through America to Mexico. Just to take advantage of the cheaper shipping cost at Mexico's ports.
LIsten to the following people. Professor Richard Wolf. Lena Petrova, John Mearsheimer, Scott Ritter, Judge Napolitano, Anthony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Vladimir Putin, Sergey Lavrov, Victor Orban, Gonzalo Lira. I am from Ireland. I lived in the United States for thirty years. The U.S. has gone full blown Gangsta.
They are always the gangster of this world.
Victoria Nuland. ??????😂
How about madam Lindsey Graham, Gina Reymondo, Janet Yellen? Try listening to them. After that, you'd want to go to a doctor to have your ears cleanse
@@katalinnemeth5871 Why isn’t there a warrant for her arrest. Ukraine sandwich lady. “Fuck the E.U.” That’s my hood
Very enlightening at the same time very sad at the current state of affairs. As part of the community, you as a voice of reason perhaps can help all of us kickstart something into existence and get the ball rolling into a positive spin.
be frank, to return to US manufacturing, 1. Stop refunding policy as people are paying for not one product per purchase, people are paying for refunds. 2. Stop theft 3. Stop rental increase and rent control program 4. Start local businesses program 5. Return to anti monopoly business program. 4. Stop voting for tea parties, both demo and rep, as they are the same.
Lena, you are the greatest !!!
Excellent remarks, Lena, as usual. Beautiful dress, by the way.
She's spot on.
Please bear in mind that the transistor and semiconductor chip were invented in the US. I completely agree with your assessment of the lack of STEM support in the US. Everyone wants to be a hip hop star instead of a scientist. This will be the death knell of the US.
So far, everything you have reported, I agree with because this, I have alos observed and researched.
Your energy and vibration is calming and honesty rings through. A great big thank you,
One Love
When you understand the Trifffin Dilemma, you realize how the US got to this point and how screwed they are.
If it depends on our Education system,, We're DOOMED!
Леночка, вы просто умничка.
Живу в США 35 лет и скажу что так как вы преподносите информацию и подготавливаетесь это просто супер. Спасибо за ваш труд.❤
Very clear and interesting analysis.
So sad, immediate gain with little foresight for future.
What a beautiful summary…well done!
I love your reporting always. Thanks
Absolutely on the money
Lena is one of the best out there for excellent journalism, when it comes to the global and U.S. economic movements, up or down, currently DOWN!
100% correct ! EU is sick in the same bed !
Lena- all your posts are more than interesting, they are informative. You can't fix something you don't understand- you bring understanding- keep it coming...
The US economy has been roughly 70% consumer/service sector based for over two decades, and what little we manufacture is in kinetics and consumables. To even attempt to reverse this would take a very long time, but that will never happen considering all the economic, governmental, spiritual, emotional, mental, and physical problems the country has.
Thank you
Lena !!
