Strong communities and families, well-paying jobs, and industrial power\u2014those are three key foundations to America\u2019s success, according to Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla. America was at its best when it had all three, but \u201call of them have been undermined,\u201d the Florida Republican says.\xa0\nAccording to Rubio, after the Cold War, America's leaders thought all nations were moving toward democracy and being "consumers and investors in a global market." But things have not gone as anticipated, and the result has been \u201cthe deindustrialization of America, the Rust Belt, [and] the loss of good-paying jobs,\u201d he says.\xa0\nIn his new book \u201cDecades of Decadence: How Our Spoiled Elites Blew America's Inheritance of Liberty, Security, and Prosperity," Rubio explains a path forward to restoring America\u2019s key foundations.\xa0\nRubio joins \u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\u201d to discuss the moment in history in which America finds itself and how we can begin to decrease dependence on China.\nEnjoy the show!\n Hosted on Acast.
