This　time　we　want　to　talk　about　the　shuttered　mills　that　once　provided　a　decent　life　for　men　and　women　of　every　race；　and　the　homes　for　sale　that　once　belonged　to　Americans　from　every　religion；　every　region；　every　walk　of　life。　This　time　we　want　to　talk　about　the　fact　that　the　real　problem　is　not　that　someone　who　doesn't　look　like　you　might　take　your　job；　it's　that　the　corporation　you　work　for　will　ship　it　overseas　for　nothing　more　than　a　profit。
