it's short-term gain, the quality stinks and it's helping America along to economic ruin but who cares as long as the executive elite lines their pockets?

| 2. I read today that US corporations are moving jobs out of China... |
 |
to Mexico. Oh the irony. Apparently China is now the 3rd lowest cost country since goods have to be shipped back here and the dollar is worse against the Chinese currency than the Mexican one.

| 6. Hey BOTH parties jumped on the Free Trade |
 |
bandwagon. So finally people have figured out what us manufacturing workers have been saying for over 30 years. You all wanted clean air and cheap products, well us folks in the Ohio valley haven't had an air pollution advisory for years but we have no jobs and no property value. I just shake my head every day when I see these threads that constantly put down American products and workers. Now the target is coal, the only good paying job left around here.
