  1. Good question!  If you can think of some way to make Corporate giants  consider American workers more important than increased "record profits", you will be a true hero.  They love the "sweat shops" and the impossibly low wages they pay in China and India...but mostly, they love getting even with the unions.  They don't have to deal with what is best for their employees anymore.  


  2. i know it stops from giving jobs to people here but look at the bright side you can buy things cheaper than you would if they were made here

  3. LOWER the corporate tax rate!  We have the highest in the World, it's no wonder companies move over seas.  

  4. Why should it be stopped?

    If you were the manufacturer of a product and you could increase profits by hiring cheap labor in a foreign country, then what incentive do you have to continue production in the US?


  5. It's too late to stop the trend. Their technology now makes it possible for them to work in their own country and not work overseas in the US and A

  6. Nothing because if they were forced to make the stuff here they simply wouldn't at all.      

  7. Nothing, it costs to much to manufacture, transport and export goods from the USA due to the drop in the dollar and stocks and shares. US business and company's would go bankrupt, adding these cost onto the consumers, who choose to buy the same item cheaper from else where.

    For over the last eight years, with young Americans joining the armed services has caused a great mass shortage of apprentice trained skill workers in all skilled employment. By the time they leave the armed services they are too old for a four year apprenticeship and wouldn't live on low paying  apprentice wages until there 24/26 years old or live at home with their parents to complete their apprenticeship or accept apprentice wages, when the minim wage pays more.

    All US companies and business's still in the US advertise for overseas skilled workers in all industries. The problem is no overseas skilled worker wants the jobs in the USA due to the low dollar and low paying wages and unwelcoming xenophobic and religious opinion and very unstable employment factors.

    So US business's are moving to countries in droves to get the skilled workers and make the profit for their stock holders in countries with a strong dollar and lower manufacturing, transport and export costs.

    In another five years time Americans are going to feel it badly when they try to get a fully qualified electrician, plumber, builder, mechanic, repair service person, chefs, hospital and hospitality staff, teachers, age and child care workers, nurses, welders, boiler makers, glaziers, painters, brick layers, tourism staff ,etc etc etc. Which there is a great shortage of them now and there will be a greater shortage when there is nobody to replace them when they retire or leave the US to where the jobs are going overseas.

    More young Americans leaving school need to stop from opting out on doing apprenticeship training for skilled work in these industries and many industries that require apprenticeship training to have their gold licences and apprentice certificates by the time there twenty one. Than being minim wage earners supporting a family and paying off a mortgage by flipping hamburgers.  

  8. Boot the Democrats out of Congress!  Republicans can then pass legislation lowering taxes on corporations so they can once again afford to produce things in the good old USA.

  9. Stop the war on capitalism and bring their taxes down to a reasonable level.   Every time taxes are raised on corporations, more leave to greener, and cheaper, pastures in other countries.  Would you still want to stay here and work if you were taxed so much you weren't even bringing a paycheck home?
