10. "job offshoring"..."everyone knows where Obama stands"


Yes we do:

Some 57,000 Minnesota jobs at risk under proposed Korean trade pact
26 January 2011
MINNEAPOLIS - Approximately 57,000 Minnesotans work in industries at risk of being off-shored should a proposed trade pact with South Korea be enacted, the Minnesota Fair Trade Coalition said.
According to the U.S. International Trade Commission, the proposed trade agreement will increase the U.S. global trade deficit, negatively affecting employment in industries prevalent in Minnesota, the federation said. The findings are at odds with President Obama’s remarks during Tuesday’s State of the Union speech that passage of the agreement would create jobs in the United States.
