Workers complain that paper products which used to be manufactured in central Maine are now manufactured in China. Why?

These people aren't stupid. Americans still use plenty of paper products. This doesn't have to be the way things are. Elites made it so.

I'd invite any of the sanctimonious liberal pundits screaming about "racism" as the overriding factor for Trump support to visit central ME.

Furthermore, plenty of "white working class" guys on hard economic times around here also think Trump is "full of shit."

Blue collar jobs = bread & butter in N. New England. Paper Mills in VT emptied & left many friends & family jobless. Drugs entered.
