The previous company I worked for shut the doors and moved to China...Of the employees, 4 were brothers...
These guys all have families...Unemployment runs out...3 of the 4 are now on disability...
A guy has to keep his family going regardless of the route he has to take...This is a problem of our own doing...What do people expect these guys to do??? Just lay down and die???
Every week over 400,000 people lose their jobs in the U.S...Their jobs are still leaving the country...And every year, how many young people join the job market???
You can’t even buy a can of mushrooms that doesn’t come from China...
If we are not willing to bring work back to the U.S., somebody will have to support these people and it will be us...So why the whining??? Look at all the cheap stuff we can get at the Chinese Dollar Stores...

Yep. That's what they want. But their debt regime problem won't go away. What they don't clearly realize, is that there's not enough real work (manufacturing) to support the bipartisan, socialist political/regulator class (them: nearly all dependent on government for incomes large and small). The various socialist groups and their vendors (service so-called industry)--failing to get revenues by flogging those who have nothing--are beginning to fight against each other over scraps of debt.
Before long, our cities might look more like those of Greece, with government-funded "professionals," pensioners and their student children yelling at, and fighting each other in the streets. Until then, they'll continue to blame all who once really produced (manufacturing), when they should repeal/abolish regulations against manufacturing, beginning with local levels of government (small shops, new competition--healthy for business and good for the economy).

What do people expect these guys to do??? Just lay down and die??? If they are white, yes. Something about making up for the legacy of past discrimination.
