If US Government does not protect domestic produced companies, whatever intrest rate we may have our economy will still be the same, or worse than it is now.

Also, US economy is hang on our international involvement, like war in Iraq, foreign aid, and many more. we already spent over $500B. in Iraq, that is just a waste and its from the spring that is almost dry out. Also, many country US is helping are now outbid us, Ghana(West Africa) curency used to be like 1000+ ratio one, today their curency is 1 ratio 1.1 to America curency. I am not saying is not good how we help them out when in debt but we are just backing into debt ourself day and day which should not be so.
