These corporate parasites will be screaming for government protection when those smart, loveable Chinese and Indians decide they can take over all those high-tech companies and maybe even come up with the next "new, big idea". You say it couldn't happen? Explain that to Ford, GM and Chrysler who smugly laughed when those funny little Hondas and Toyotas first came over here. How many years now has the Toyota Camry been America's most popular car? I just dare our panty-twisting politicians to give these hateful CEOs one iota of help when their industry is taken over by foreigners.

Or when the Army Air Corp risked life and limb bombing former Ford plants in Germany.

You better believe it. They want all the benefits of doing business and living in the US while they exploit Third World labor

The situation is worse than many are willing to contemplate, let alone admit. When the next World War comes (and it WILL come as soon as the Chinese feel they are ready), what do you think will happen over here when all of those factories that the US government and companies have funded are nationalized? I may be wrong on this, but I don't think we have any companies based in the US that manufacture motherboards for PC's anymore. There are a lot of industries that are not here any longer. Sure, we could probably rebuild a good part of that capacity, but how many years would it take to ramp up domestic production of everything to make PC's to match what we import today? Imagine the average, base level PC costing about $5000 for two or three years, not to mention everything else.
