Business are in business to make money, and not give you a job...

So if business has no loyalty for employees why are people surprised when employees have no loyalty for the business?

BTW, last time I checked unemployment it was probably the lowest for any President. So much for the unemployment lines...

It was lower under Clinton but regardless, my job was offshored in 2003. I took another job outside of my field paying about 40% of what I made before just to make ends meet. By your way of thinking, since I wasn't unemployed, then everything was hunky-dory.

I'm not doubting that this was a difficult time for you, and you have my sympathies.

But the fact is, it never was "your job" in the sense that you were ever entitled to it. And I am unable to lay my finger on that section of the Constitution that guarantees any American a job in his field.

Moreover, I reject the idea that legally forcing some Americans to pay higher prices so that other Americans can be employed. That is an outright job subsidy, and is always bad economic policy.
