President Barack Obama will present his “jobs plan” on Wednesday at a company that’s shipping jobs overseas.

Obama is scheduled to present his “jobs plan” in Apex, North Carolina on Wednesday at the headquarters of WestStar Precision.

WestStar Precision is a high-end, specialty manufacturer that just opened a new facility in San Jose, Costa Rica, creating many new jobs there, but not in the United States.

The most important solution for alleviation of poverty is the creation of wealth.

Government possesses no ability for creating wealth.

Government possesses no money except that which it confiscates from the citizens who earn it in the private sector through taxes or fees or through printing money (inflation), or through indebtedness to be laid on future generations.

"To preserve [the] independence [of the people,] we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debts as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our callings and our creeds, as the people of England are, our people, like them, must come to labor sixteen hours in the twenty-four, give the earnings of fifteen of these to the government for their debts and daily expenses, and the sixteenth being insufficient to afford us bread, we must live, as they now do, on oatmeal and potatoes, have no time to think, no means of calling the mismanagers to account, but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers." --Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816. ME 15:39

"I deem [this one of] the essential principles of our government and consequently [one] which ought to shape its administration:... The honest payment of our debts and sacred preservation of the public faith." --Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801. ME 3:322

"I sincerely believe... that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity under the name of funding is but swindling futurity on a large scale." --Thomas Jefferson to John Taylor, 1816. ME 15:23

"[With the decline of society] begins, indeed, the bellum omnium in omnia [war of all against all], which some philosophers observing to be so general in this world, have mistaken it for the natural, instead of the abusive state of man. And the fore horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression." --Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816. ME 15:40

"Agriculture, manufactures, commerce, and navigation, the four pillars of our prosperity, are the most thriving when left most free to individual enterprise." - Thomas Jefferson

"The enviable condition of the people of the United States is often too much ascribed to the physical advantages of their soil & climate .... But a just estimate of the happiness of our country will never overlook what belongs to the fertile activity of a free people and the benign influence of a responsible government." - James Madison

My brother works right around the corner and he doubtsof if any of his employees will be able to get to work till after ‘’big ears’’ leaves. The clown only thinks of himself and payback to some trivial contributor. So now the orders will have to be completed during an overtime shift and the company loses profit which could in turn have an employee lose his job. Way to Go O. Man I luvs dis heer hope and change/s

Our Costa Rica facility is designed for high volume production to support our international and domestic clients.

LOL! The Costa Rica shop does all the production while the NC shop is basically a front to secure government handouts.

A 10,000 foot building.... What a joke... The idiot is loosing his ass and has to move to a low labor area.

We have a supplier that has 40K and has cut his staff and added very high speed equipment to compete. He also uses handicapped to package and to small task.

He does great works for us. I would never ship our work off shore. Any “burp”
over there would really hurt us here.

Damm Fool!

It would be comical that an individual, who has never held a real job, would give a "jobs speech", except for the fact that so many people are hurting and we're sliding into third world status!
